\"THANKS TO HIM\"
Soman Ragavan said:
Well said. Some quotes :
--- Without the cold and bleakness of winter,
The warmth and splendour of spring there could never be.
Misfortune have steeled and tempered me
And strengthened my resolve even further.
--- Under the pestle, how terribly the rice suffers !
But it comes out of the pounding as white as cotton.
The same thing to man in this world occurs :
Hard trials turn him into polished diamond.
--- Sadness turns my dreams into a thousand tangled skeins.
An innocent man, yet I’ve been a whole year in chains.
With tears dropping on my inkslab, I compose a poem on captivity.
--- Now, poetry is something most intimate to man. It can hardly tell lies or else the poet is not a poet. So that they don’t necessarily gain by revealing their inner selves
--- Ho Chi Minh (1892-1969) Vietnam

\"hollow WORDS, empty HEART\"
sorenbarrett said:
Some people are not capable of love. Passion filles their world passion of a sexual nature. Love is rare. Passion fooled and fooler itself under the disguise and mask of love plays its part but leaves when the play is over. Well written

وہ جو دل میں تیرا مقام ہے
Abdullah123 said:
As a pakistani, I thoroughly enjoyed this read. It\'s not often you see ordinary people write poetry in urdu, outside the classical poets (or maybe i live under a rock). Urdu is such a beautifully fluid and poetic language, I truly wish I was proficient enough to write in it. Maybe some day...
great write
