Too young to have actually visited the real sixties? Yep - among the diversity they were there then. I lead a sheltered life now and hadn\'t realized they still existed in exactly that form ......Nice to see one dissected, Tom.

Thank you for the analyses of your poems, Mr. Raghaban!
I have read your poem titled \"Sudden departure\" from the link provided in the analyses as well as in your description.
Your poems are beautiful form of art that no novice can judge.

Taking Poetry Back
Simurgh said:
I loved your poem Tom , it was not just heart touching but a reflection which is enticing as well!
The poem has a good humourous side, with poignancy, and a nice taste!
Don\'t care about poetry sites, or magazines that are silly, you have a wonderful mind for poetry.
In my opinion, you are a born poet and meant for poetry as well; just get going !!
Someday in near future you will be one of the best poet of the world!
But here in MPS, you will be always appreciated and celebrated for your soul touching, humourous and beautiful poems; whether you want to carry on to write poetry or you don\'t want to.
You are a very funny and lovely guy who loves playing with words gifting us the best of your poems!
Continue to write poetry in your eagle course dear!!
You made me emotional with your poem ❤️ 😭😍
as recently in 2024 I l was first seleted to share my poem titled \'life\' for the Litfiesta competition arranged by the Amity University, India which was the among the top 25 poems after the selection from the 100 best poems of West Bengal a state of India ,
but on the very day of selecting first, second and third they only selected first, second as to their institutions student only and third as another private university called Techno India University\'s student.
What a disgusting way of providing prizes to their institutions students only!!
I was left awestruck, and sad as I had a high hope that my poetry will be selected among the top 3 places. I rebuked myself later, asking my mind \"why did I went their so far from my house just to get my poem not even a certificate ( determined to get 1st prize there )??\"
From that day I told myself not to write poetry for the publisers and just for prizes, but to write poems for my passion and happiness; only as a nice, comfy leisure that pleasures me as always from the day I started writing poems!!
So Tom, don\'t be sad and never think of to quite writing poems!! They are always for the poets pleasure and passion...
Be passionate and gift us more such marvellous poems to us, your friends in the my poetic side here!! Get your pleasure and comfort through your beautiful poems, dear friend...
Stay committed to more of your poetic journey, ( \"Journey to the centre of the Earth \" by Jules Verne) just joking, lol 😂 😆 and not only just the journey meant for prizes!!
Hope to read more of your poems in the coming days!
With love,
Simurgh

“All my notes and jotting and ideas
were on their way to the junk-yard....”
It is dangerous to rely on hard copies. We should store all our stuff on the Internet. If you yourself don’t dump your writings, accidentally or not, others will do it some day... So, store away your valuable writings and compositions on the Internet. Soman Ragavan.

“with no chance of parole...” How beautifully put ! Poetry is a tribunal and a judge...
Poetry is overwhelming, the poet becomes its slave. You did not go to bed as a poet. You were one since a long time back. The poet is a slave of poetry, with no chance of breaking free from the chains. Soman Ragavan.

Simurgh said:
Beautiful and vibrant poem with its heart warming messages. Celebrating love is what that is important in life!
When you have somebody who loves you very much and share a great bonding with somebody, then you have a heaven with you!
Life becomes more beautiful when you are married to someone you love.
I am quite young but I can feel it with my poetic sense.
I once had a lover difficult to propose but I always felt a different throb in my heart. ❤️
This poem is a great work of poetry sharing importance of love in our lives!
Well done!🌹🌹

Beautiful, vibrant and enticing poem!
Indeed, you listed most of the reasons why a poet or author switch to writing. I found the poem very pleasing and adorable.

Oh my word! You were not allowed to make me laugh so hard!!! My la. Waxing eloquent describing reality, with an adroit flick of the wrist rendering side-splitting what accomplishes exactly what we know too painfully well, this takes the cake. You\'re a regular riot! Thank you so VERY much. I love, love, LOVE it!

Expression is everything when reading poetry, as is timing. Been a while since I read at open mic. It takes practice. Some people have the advantage of a great voice. I’m not one of them. Enjoyed your composition here Tom. Made me reflect. Happy Tuesday.

I feel it is pointless reading a poem if you are not going to try and understand it, i am learning it takes time to work out some pieces of work( even i do not always get it, but i try). It is also what the author deserves, time and effort has gone into writing it after all, enjoyed the read

A great and too often neglected message in this poem. I agree whole heartedly. The meaning of the poem is not just in its rhyme, but in its wording, pacing and meter as well intonation and emphasis. Like a song that can be sang note perfect it is different when sang from the soul with soul. Very nice
