Poem Artwork

My question concerns something
Interesting for all of men, poetry.
Would you agree with statement
That the grade of enlightenment
And depth of versification made
By the famously known masters
Are the most significant findings
In the world literature of all times.

This mostly concerns wordsmiths
Of old who gave us the essence
Of a wild freestyle: a pen of wind,
A sheet of paper wetted with ink
And tears of gladness and twinge,
And quite often are considered as
Riddles for those who seek Truth,
No matter what it takes from them.

This or that way but we constantly
Learn from them, the dead poets --
They are infinitely precious for us;
And young men are absolutely right
Of being interested in their wisdom,
Which is neither dry nor out-of-date.

 Reviews of "Dead Poets"
Reviewed by John Herlihy
Reviewed on April 21, 2016
World-renown "dead" poets of the sort you mention never actually die. They have left part of their soul within each individual poem and thus continue to live thru their writings. We of the modern time learn from them, their themes, their form, their sense of discipline, their integrity and their supreme sense of art, namely to tap into universal meaning and spiritual truth that continues to touch and will always affect the souls of mankind. Thank you for this noble tribute to the Dead Poets. John
