"The Poet"
Words flow onto paper like rain , forming giant rivers
of unseen lands.
The very force guides us along a journey
that holds of great adventure.
We are the explorers of the literary world.
We must find the courage to write what
others are unable to, with the greatest
of passion.
A poet dreams. and then must portray his
visions upon the page that lies before him.
It is the beauty of all things that inspires us
to communicate in such a way.
A man does not wake up one day, and
decide to become a poet.
It must live in the very blood that courses
through his veins.
He is the creator of a world, only he has
known.
He is the actor and director, of all that
speaks out through his pen.
He is a man of all men, Visionary of all
visionaries.
What you haven't seen, he has.
What you can't say, he can.
For he is the poet.

Rabindranath Tagore and Sarojini Naidu are the most famous of the Indian poets who wrote beautiful poems in English. Both were Bengalis. Since their times, perfect English poems from India fell on the decline or as is believed, withdrew to sequestered cloisters, due to probably the haughtiness of the media world as a real Indian will not go and stand before an editor or publisher to get his poems published as is his nature. And there is yet another probable reason for their rarity. Less and less number of Indians came to be schooled in England since their withdrawal. For our luck Tagore and a multitude of good Indian poets have written countless beautiful poems in their native tongues which only need to be translated.
