Discoveries of a Purge

Purge, and in doing so,
Discover the forgotten
That were deemed redundant

Yet for some reason, 
The redundancy didn't motivate 
The purger at the time,
To dispose of the object

Now, purger debates;
At the time, I felt the need
To hold on, but not grasp it
Will I ever grasp it?

Purge, and in doing so,
Discover the memories
That were deemed embellishments

Yet for some reason,
The embellishments didn't make it,
To the disposal process

Now the purger debates;
At the time, I felt the need
To hold on, but I have never grasped it
Will I ever grasp it?

Discover and debate, 
As part of the purge
For afterwards,
The purge will fade away

    I love that your blog includes both book related content as well as your own work. Do you also write short stories or novels?

      I definitely haven't begun writing a novel yet! I've written a few short stories, but nothing I'm particularly happy with. When I write a great one- it'll show up here on the blog!

The Hero, by Rabindranath Tagore

 The narrative poem" The Hero" was written by Indian poet Rabindranath Tagore. Set in a young boy's imaginations this narrative has all the necessary elements and is rich in imagery. The characters, plot, setting, theme, climax and idea are all very clearly outlined.  The setting of the poem falls within the boy's imagination. It is described to have 'spiky grass' and a 'narrow broken path'. It is also mentioned that the country is 'strange and dangerous'. The rurality of the setting is further accentuated when Tagore talks of the 'cattle' and 'wide fields'.

I cannot remember my mother by Rabindranath Tagore

 The poem has been titled " I cannot remember my mother". It attracted me for some reason, for I thought that surely, a poem couldn't be completely empty. There had to be some form of nostalgia, or memory in a poem about no remembrance.  I realized after reading it, that I was right. In fact, the poem's title can be considered an oxymoron. However, the extent to which this poem is nostalgic, the amount of tiny details in this poem, wow. But I don't suppose Tagore was a Literature Nobel Laureate for nothing. This poem has sensitized its audience to the poet's colossal loss, though the poet ,it seems,has made no effort to do so. There is nothing superfluous about his writing, and the poem seems like a true expression of his love for his mother. It talks about how his mother managed to leave her presence on everything before she passed away, and how those little memories of his,form an incomplete memory of his mother.

One by Shawnee Kellie

  The poem "One" by Shawnee Kellie is a very interesting and thought-provoking piece of writing. The poem spreads the message that it is not only a large group of people that can make a change, but one idea, one thought, one human that can help make the world a better place.
