Sometimes the Work Comes to You by Ricky Ray

Some of the most beautiful poetry I've ever read has to be from the pen of Shri Rabindranath Tagore. He has a way of capturing the ethereal that smells like wet earth, and feels like the starry sky. A wonderful piece from his 1913 collection in the Poetry Magazine. Enjoy

A dreamy realism; a "growing- up" poem; nostalgia that comes when we begin to appreciate hidden realities behind magical stories. A beautiful piece.

The 24th Poet Laureate of the United States brings to us, in this poem, a sense of motherhood, a sense of nurture; a sense of nature, fusing it with what seem to be a sentiment that can be felt all over the world, in one way or another.

Well, here's a master at work, giving us something to reflect about, in and out. Please excuse the recording quality, enjoy the piece. :)

In Gardening, Rhina P. Espaillat, through the nurturing act of tending to plants, reveals the universal spiritual connection that binds humanity together, reminding us of the beauty and significance of our shared existence, while paying and homage to her own heritage and culture.

To do means making mistakes. It's unavoidable. Every one who's trying something, will make mistakes while learning. It is the duty of the doer to stay alert and do the beat, and enjoy this dance. A beautiful poem by Jennifer Bartlet, a reprimand; an inspiration!

I loved another poem by Inua Ellams Fuck/Shakespear, which got me interested in him in the first place. He feels like a wise older brother. So I'm sharing his work. Cheers!

"Your Heart is the Size of an Ocean, Go Find Yourself in its Hidden Depths" Rumi had said. Ricky Ray writes a Surreal World that feels Rumiesque, and Gives Us a Chance to Look Within. Beautiful.

A heartfelt poem. Ot transports you to a dream realm; packed with strong emotions, it is a poem that celebrates fatherhood and knowledge. A beautiful poem.

A string of words to holdon to as you dip into the spiritual. Mr. Ashbery gives us a beautiful piece that's nothing short of an epiphany. Enjoy.
