As I pass each shop I take a look, I can’t resist the lure of a book.
I scan the offering on a shelfand wish I could write as well myself.

I wish I could write a poetic treasure
with rollicking rhythm and metric measure.

You loved me first as a sweet young miss,
Never laughing at my mumbled words and fumbled kiss.

Most of us, poetry lovers or others, have read Allama Muhammed Iqbal at least some of him somewhere. To many he remained hard-to-understand philosopher poet. Iqbal has written pure poetry too which is equally remarkable. I like Dr Iqbal, one my favourite

OCTOBER
The conkers (horse chestnuts to the uninitiated) are falling of the trees and will soon be joined by the leaves. The dark mornings and even darker nights have arrived to make the daily commute to and from work even more depressing. The ch

When I was a youngster and, occasionally, listening to what my teachers would tell me, there were a lot of certainties in the things they would say. Not the least of these pronouncements were about what they called poetry, My English teacher, or should th

I-Like-Rhymes (consummately end and middle?),
Hello, here, since I couldn't comment on your column about the vernacular poet, though I was logged in at Oldpoetry. I was just wondering if job poetry includes mothers, since I'm finding the stylus a sliver in the schedule. And also it's not dull necessarily for a now you can turn the page permission, but there might be another language or abridged for kids to find leisure in.

. Welcome to my world Readers
This is White Rose land [Yorkshire] but all visitors are welcome.
Here you will find the offerings of a wanna-be poet and hopefully you will enjoy reading them as much as I enjoyed writing (and sometimes performing) them.
However if you get tired of my scribblings then why not feast your eyes on the works of some REAL poets on the sister site to Allpoetry that goes by the inspired title  Oldpoetry
Maybe it's because I am becoming recognised as an OLD poet but I enjoy spending time on the Oldpoetry website oldpoetry.com/ where I am a member of the Research Team.
On that site I can find lots of poems by my favourite poets such as Cicely Fox Smith oldpoetry.com/opoem/48698 or Robert Service oldpoetry.com/opoem/3532 or even Roald Dahl oldpoetry.com/opoem/55895 .
I can go to the front page oldpoetry.com/ and choose from the list of popular poets or the Poem for the Day or even just pick a random category and a random poem and enjoy reading what appears.
If I want to I can look at the forums and see what people are saying about poetry oldpoetry.com/board/list or look at the comments people have written recently about poems they have just read http://oldpoetry.com/comment/list .
And its free ! ! !
