BEAUTY OF POETRY BY AUTHOR BRENDA MOHAMMED
BEAUTY OF POETRY BY AUTHOR BRENDA MOHAMMED
She has penned poems on love, nature, world icons, world
monuments, peace, motivational poems, and Christian life.
As a cancer survivor, she has dedicated a section for
persons fighting cancer, surviving cancer, or lost loved ones because of this
dread disease.
The book is easy to read as readers can read his/her favourite
genres in the order they prefer.
The famous English poet John Keats said, “An object of
beauty gives us perennial joy. Beauty never fades and is not devalued. A thing of beauty is a joy forever and it
makes us forget the sorrows and sufferings of the world.”
Keats also conceptualized beauty as truth and truth as
beauty. He said, “Beauty is truth, truth beauty, that is all ye know on earth,
and all ye need to know. Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard are
sweeter.”
Another famous English poet, William Wordsworth said,
“Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.
Painting is silent poetry, and poetry is painting that speaks. Poetry is the
spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings: it takes its origin from emotion
recollected in tranquillity.”
All the above describes the beautiful poetry in the book,
and what makes it special.
It will be a beautiful asset to your library.

CELEBRATING WORLD POETRY DAY
CELEBRATING WORLD POETRY DAY
Poetry has been around since ancient Biblical times.
King David, Moses, and King Solomon wrote the
Psalms.
Poets share ideas, express emotions, and create
imagery.
And proudly present them to readers in beautiful poetry.
*
With poetry, we can write about anything we feel.
True things, and even things unreal.
Poetry can take us into an enchanted world.
A land of dreams, reality, hope, and places untold.
*
Poetry can be used to express something artistically.
The use of rhyme and rhythm contributes magically.
Thoughts and ideas can be arranged in stanzas,
Making the language simple to connect with readers.
*
Poetry is long-lived, and an important part of art and
culture.
Blank verse, rhymed, free verse, narrative, and Tanka,
Pastoral, sonnet, elegies, odes, limericks, epics, and
haiku.
Even Soliloquy, villanelle, lyrical, ballad, and Gogyohka
too.
*
When I visited Shakespeare’s hometown, I grew to love
Poetry.
Like a stranger standing at my door, it waited to greet
me.
It brought out the best in me and made me happy.
On World Poetry Day, I display my poetry books proudly.
