A Tribute To My Readers

A writer is incomplete without the readers, so this is a short tribute to you all....

My dear readers,
I'm grateful to you all,
for being here...

Each time i write a poem,
i earnestly wait,
wait for your reviews,
because, they tell me the depth,
to which my poems are true..!

I never thought,
that I'd write,
but there's a story
a story, behind it,
full of insight,
that makes one smile.
which I'd like
to share with y'all
tonight...

When I was a kid
of twelfth grade,
it was the day, i think,
third or fourth of May,
I remember the day,
I remember the date,
it was the Moral Science
class on 5th of May,
My teacher told us
to write something,
on the topic, `When I'll bid Adieu`
While others wrote
one or two lines,
I was there
with four lines..!
she checked everyone's writing,
by her keen mind,
and intense understanding..
And when she came to me,
and read those four lines,
the situation, i feel was truly divine!

I  know not
what she saw in
those lines,
she came to me,
and urged me,
to complete that poem
By May nine...
the next day, i did it,
and later,
it got published in our
first school magazine,
for the first time..!

Everyone who read,
appreciated it a lot,
and encouraged me
to continue this
great work of mine,
In the coming time.

but all that happened,
was because of Her
my lovely teacher
that time,
who fell in love
with those four lines!

yes, my dear readers,
I'd really love to tell,
that,
if i write well today,
its entire credit goes to her.!!

Then i came here,
and wrote more poems,
and the result i think,
y'all have in front of you!


My dear readers,
i really cherish your presence,
in reading and reviewing my writings,
and i cordially thank you, and wish,
that, in future, you will be even
more supporting.


if i am a poem, you are my words.!
if i am a book, you are the pages.!
So, i request you, to always be
with me,
in this race of chaste,
as a book is empty, without pages,
and a poem, useless, without
words and phrases..!!

"if i am a poem, you are my words.!
if i am a book, you are the pages.!"

thought these lines were brilliant! this is incredibly well done and very endearing. after all, what would us writers be if we didn't have anyone to read our work! glad to read and review:)

There's some pretty good rhymes here Saumya, and I think you should use this piece as your profile or attach it to your profile anyway, because it lets the reader know why you write.

[CBH]

I think that readers really do need to hear that they are appreciated, and they rarely are in poems, so thank you for this. This poem also shows how amazing your teacher can be, and how much of an impact they can have on your life. This poem was beautiful, and 'When I'll Bid Adieu' was one of my favorites of yours, so you really do have talent. Please keep on writing, for all of your readers!

[Saumya]

thank you so so much cassie:) loved your review my friend, and now i definitely wont even think of leaving writing because i write for all lovely people around me, and nothing can be much precious except their love and appreciation:)

good luck:)

Wonderfully sincere, and that's a quality that doesnt always display in poetry. Your teacher obviously sensed the sensitive spirit you have, thank goodness. Your deserve your success, you learn, you listen and read .. you'll end up being more than you presently believe.

Thank you for sharing your sweet thoughts and obvious skills. ' if i am a poem, you are my words.!
if i am a book, you are the pages.! '
