Poetry Writes The Poet (The Sonnet) | Corazon Calamidad
The best poets are the ones,
Who don’t know how to write poetry.
Just like the best scientists are those,
Who practice science as everyday curiosity.
The more you focus on the definition,
The more you lose touch with the essence.
That is why I never know what my work is about,
To explain love is to lose love’s fragrance.
Painting of a landscape is not the landscape itself,
Depiction must never be confused with the depicted.
I don’t know how to do small talk, hence the sonnets.
Poet doesn’t write poetry, poetry writes the poet.
The moment I think I am in control, I lose all control.
Craving no control, the river just nourishes the soul.

Best of poetry is an act of selfless care | Yarasitan
It takes a lot of heart to build trust,
Even more to keep the trust.
But what if both hearts are in pieces,
How will they ever overcome their past!
The answer is really quite simple, and yet,
It is the last revelation to be crystal clear.
Seek not for perfection but for the being,
Broken in heart but intact in character.
The road to joy is paved with broken hearts,
Broken heart is something to cherish not mourn.
Heart not broken is a heart devoid of life,
That’s how the pieces of two fit together as one.
Poet has no power over the muse,
It’s the muse who powers the poet.
Best of poetry is an act of selfless care,
As the poet pens the pain through hopelessness.
Even more to keep the trust.

How will they ever overcome their past!

Poetry and Philosophy (The Sonnet) | Himalayan Sonneteer
Good poetry is but philosophy,
Good philosophy is but poetry.
It is only the majority amateurs,
Who insist on a divided duality.
Poetry is not about the rhyming,
Philosophy is not about profundity.
A warm philosopher is walking poetry,
A gentle poet is walking philosophy.
Poetry is the most potent form of philosophy,
As it brings illumination through simplicity.
Anybody can make things sound more complicated,
Only the best philosophers can write good poetry.
In philosophy, deeper we go, simpler things get.
Philosopher talks of light, poet swims in it.
