On the Nature of Love - Rabindranath Tagore poem
Poetry reading of On the Nature of Love (1896) by Rabindranath Tagore.
-----------------------------------------------
The night is black and the forest has no end;
a million people thread it in a million ways.
We have trysts to keep in the darkness, but where
or with whom - of that we are unaware.
But we have this faith - that a lifetime's bliss
will appear any minute, with a smile upon its lips.
Scents, touches, sounds, snatches of songs
brush us, pass us, give us delightful shocks.
Then peradventure there's a flash of lightning:
whomever I see that instant I fall in love with.
I call that person and cry: `This life is blest!
for your sake such miles have I traversed!'
All those others who came close...

The Second Coming - William Butler Yeats poem
Просмотров 32 тыс.3 года назад
Poetry reading of The Second Coming (1919) by W.B. Yeats. Turning and turning in the widening gyre The falcon cannot hear the falconer; Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity. Surely some r...

Poetry reading of Strange Meeting (1918) by Wilfred Owen. It seemed that out of battle I escaped Down some profound dull tunnel, long since scooped Through granites which titanic wars had groined. Yet also there encumbered sleepers groaned, Too fast in thought or death to be bestirred. Then, as I probed them, one sprang up, and stared With piteous recognition in fixed eyes, Lifting distressful ...

Poetry reading of First Love (1820) by John Clare. I ne’er was struck before that hour With love so sudden and so sweet, Her face it bloomed like a sweet flower And stole my heart away complete. My face turned pale as deadly pale, My legs refused to walk away, And when she looked, what could I ail? My life and all seemed turned to clay. And then my blood rushed to my face And took my eyesight q...

Poetry reading of His Excuse for Loving (1622) by Ben Jonson. Let it not your wonder move, Less your laughter, that I love. Though I now write fifty years, I have had, and have, my peers; Poets, though divine, are men, Some have lov'd as old again. And it is not always face, Clothes, or fortune, gives the grace; Or the feature, or the youth. But the language and the truth, With the ardour and t...

I have not seen his face, nor have ...

Poetry reading of Work Without Hope (1825) by Samuel Taylor Coleridge. All Nature seems at work. Slugs leave their lair- The bees are stirring-birds are on the wing- And Winter slumbering in the open air, Wears on his smiling face a dream of Spring! And I the while, the sole unbusy thing, Nor honey make, nor pair, nor build, nor sing. Yet well I ken the banks where amaranths blow, Have traced t...

Poetry reading of The God Abandons Anthony (1911) by C.P. Cavafy. When suddenly, at midnight, you hear an invisible procession going by with exquisite music, voices, don’t mourn your luck that’s failing now, work gone wrong, your plans all proving deceptive-don’t mourn them uselessly. As one long prepared, and graced with courage, say goodbye to her, the Alexandria that is leaving. Above all, d...

    The first paragraph is a prophetic vision of 2024 England, which had degenerated and lost its way spiritually. A vociferous strident and self righteous minority dictates & demands the relatively silent majority to change and conform to new norms -such as redefining marriage/man/woman. It is all too sad: a perversion and malignant mutation of our once Green and Pleasant Land. If we cannot rescue ourselves, will King Arthur return as ancient myth promises ?

    1829 poem by Edgar Allan Poe, published in Al Aaraaf, Tamerlane, and Minor Poems 🤯 according to wiki. But I have read I thought, all of his work and never heard this before... I don't know, it doesn't sit right with me. That it's princess Diana as ones mind can't help but connect to. Okay so this might help put it into context of the time it was written. Gurney’s steam buses started the early 1800s automobile boom in the UK, offering the first motorised bus service in 1829, from London to Bath, averaging 14 MPH, which is pretty damn good for the era. A boiler explosion of one of his steam coaches (notably not operated by him, and ignoring some key safety considerations) killed two people, which gave rise to at least one parody song: Instead of journeys people now go upon a Gurney With steam to do the work by power of attorney But with a load it may explode And you may be undone And find you’re going up to heaven Instead of to London. The incident also led to a re-design where the passenger car was pulled behind the engine-car, so in case of a boiler explosion, only working-class people would die, an acceptable compromise in England
