Not a syllable is wasted. The aim is aphorism—the slaying of the elusive Truth-beast with one unerring stroke. But for Frost, as usual, the truth remains ambiguous and the question goes unanswered; to settle for aphorism would be to oversimplify. The speaker considers the age-old question of whether the world will end in fire or in ice. This is similar to another age-old question: whether it would be preferable to freeze to death or burn to death. The speaker determines that e...2020-05-1600 minEvery Poem Podcast EverEvery Poem Podcast EverShoe in a Lockdown(self-narrative)This poem is composed by me. This is a short poem in hindi on the situation faced by a shoe. It's about how emotional it is as telling it's story in this crisis.

I wanted to portray it and make you realise the impact on it's life.2020-05-1301 minEvery Poem Podcast EverEvery Poem Podcast EverFreedom by Rabindranath Tagore.Tagore was a lover of human freedom. Influenced by the western liberalism, Tagore opined that freedom of a nation will provide ample scope to its citizens to express their view openly. Freedom of soul can be achieved through self-realisation and with the poem it is evident.2020-05-1201 minEvery Poem Podcast EverEvery Poem Podcast EverEkla Chalo Re by Rabindranath Tagore.Ekla Chalo Re’ was written by Rabindranath Tagore in 1905 for a magazine Bhandar. It then appeared first in an anthology called ‘Baul’. I do not know much about this collection, though I am keen to find more about it. It later appeared in the Swadeshi section of another collection. It was sung in Bengali and this is the english version in the form of a poem. It resonates at every level of existence – practical where it is not possible to have support all the time, emotional – where we all feel alone every once in a while even though surrounded by people and...2020-05-0601 minEvery Poem Podcast EverEvery Poem Podcast EverLockdown Interview with Lavkush Gupta.Here is a new segment called the 'Lockdown Interview' done with one of my dearest soul, my friend, companion and an artist.

I got into a literary fest and then I recognised my love for poems. Earlier, I would write short quotes and tales. After I narrated my poem and got praised I went and wrote few more. And that's how 'That Perfume' is here. It simply depicts the role of aroma and scent in a women's life.2020-05-0101 minEvery Poem Podcast EverEvery Poem Podcast EverThe World Is Too Much with Us by William Wordsworth.The World Is Too Much with Us" is a sonnet by the English poet William Wordsworth. This relatively simple poem angrily states that human beings are too preoccupied with the material (“The world...getting and spending”) and have lost touch with the spiritual and with nature.A good relationship with nature helps individuals connect to both the spiritual and the social worlds.2020-04-2801 minEvery Poem Podcast EverEvery Poem Podcast EverKrishnakali by Rabindranath Tagore.Tagore writes about Krishnakali (dark flower). Here, he describes a dark, beautiful young woman in a village field, who momentarily loses her inhibition when she glances at him. In addition, the poet dismisses the opinions of the villagers, who describe her as ‘dark’. Dark in this context refers to her lack of beauty.  After all, black has historically been associated with more negative connotations than white. It highlights internalised racism through the villagers’ description of her as black and thereby unattractive. It is a great deal to consider in our understanding and appraisal of ourselves and each other.2020-04-2603 minEvery Poem Podcast EverEvery Poem Podcast EverTrue LoveThis is an anonymous poem and would connect to everyone who ever found love or given up on it. Love is a wonderful feeling and can give you strength in adversity. True love is built on free will and free choice, not control or manipulation.

To him this life is full of possibilities, as we can achieve higher goals by making the full use of our time and by working hard, and of course, by keeping faith in the power and potential of life. He does not have faith in those who hold the pessimistic view of life. Throughout the entire poem, the poet Longfellow conveys his view of life, instructs the readers to make the most out of this life, and inspires us to participate in the work and a...2020-04-1902 minEvery Poem Podcast EverEvery Poem Podcast EverIn the Name of KASHIHere is poem written by me. The Indian culture is blessed with the numerous cities of wonder. One such is Kashi, the oldest city in the world also known as the city of temples. I'm personally inclined towards it. Varanasi has imbibed a culture within us, a way of living. You can always feel at home in Kashi.2020-04-1701 minEvery Poem Podcast EverEvery Poem Podcast EverFive ways to kill a man by Edwin Brock.Brock's poems amply demonstrate the virtues of his "intensely felt, supple, direct and memorable work." It's chilling in its deliberately emotionless tone as it uses the language of a practical manual to explore humanity's cruelty. Progress is reduced to the way in which mankind has improved its methods of killing.2020-04-1602 minEvery Poem Podcast EverEvery Poem Podcast EverGiving me Strength by Toshika Mishra.This poem is crafted by me. It talks about the time when a person has a hope in the time of adversity. When he/she is surrounded by people who are just for sake and try to misuse his or her emotions.

The chirping birds and soothing winds tell us nature is a gift of God and his grace.2020-04-1302 minEvery Poem Podcast EverEvery Poem Podcast EverLaugh and Be Merry by John MasefieldIn his poems John Masefield expresses a love of ordinary of and all of life in its reality. He encourages us to enjoy our lives in this world, because the universe is itself an expression of the joy of God. The poet advises that we should have a outlook in life. Life is brief and it is not to be frittered away in sorrow and despair.  The strong rhythm of the lines in itself suggests a joyful dance. Laughter is the best medicine.2020-04-1201 minEvery Poem Podcast EverEvery Poem Podcast EverThe Road Not Taken by Robert Frost."The Road Not Taken" is a narrative poem. It reads naturally or conversationally and begins as a kind of photographic depiction of a quiet moment in woods. It is one of Frost's most popular works. Regarding the "sigh" that is mentioned in the last stanza, it may be seen as an expression of regret or of satisfaction, but there is significance in the difference between what the speaker has just said of the two roads, and what he will say in the future.2020-04-1101 minEvery Poem Podcast EverEvery Poem Podcast EverThe Phenomenal Woman by Maya Angelou.Maya Angelou is one of the most influential women of our time.
