Ode to Poetry

[Mir Fazle Rabbi]

Ode to Poetry
Mir Md. Fazle Rabbi

You did not choose me,
I don’t know why.
It’s me, who chose you
Cause you are shy.

Never thought to write you,
You are like a moon.
I’m not an astronaut
How I catch you soon?

Reluctant to come closer
You are my new bride,
Winning you is considered as
Something of my pride.

Trying hard to convince you
Like a teen-age boy,
Blushing red in vacillation
You are such a coy.

Unable to approach you
Feeling disastrous, 
You seem the only test 
I can never pass.

Contemplating all my time
Keeping you in mind,
Trying hard to get you dear
Don’t be so unkind.

In my dream came you then
With a blazing beam,
Told me to be friend with
Pen and paper team.

Sitting in solitude, I
Write words, a few
Suddenly I find out that
It’s none but you.

[bbhaque]

Well expressed.

[R B Habib]

You seem the only test
I can never pass...
Suddenly I find out that
It’s none but you.

--- You passed well Rabbi

I love how you use rhymes and alliteration. But the whole poem reminds you of your profile picture on FB where you are peeping through the curtains. :p

Well, simple words are the best for delivering the toughest idea. Love reading your ode, dear.

Wonderful!

Moments of exposure came so close
Till more things wait before you get to know
Never ending synergy struggles hard to match
The trouble at hand makes you the poet at last.
