Some might say that it’s immature and yes - they are right. With experience, you will gradually come to know how immature it is to blindly trust anyone in a society where people endlessly compete with each other over so many things.  People have so many colors to them and it takes time for their true colors to come out. It is natural that when you maintain higher standards and morals, you will have to let go of the people who cannot keep up with those high values. You will find it is worthy to do so, because higher standards and values will always protect you from going through low quality experiences in life.  So, be patient and carefully decide who you need to keep in your life and who you should let go of 🤍.

... When one's imagination runs wild, It paints the world differently in their eyes, In hues, others are not able to see, Unless they pour them down in words like pearls, One by one making a necklace, Or dance their brushes across a canvas, Like the shoes of a ballerina, Drawing patterns in a ballet, Though it is never the same. 'Cus it's nonsensical to practical human beings, Too queer to hardened hearts, Too much for a society, They never felt they belonged to. Often in nature, they find themselves, In themselves, they find the Universe, And those who have the most nonsensical hearts of all, they become the wildest poets or masters of paints! www.pinterest.com

https://www.rutakrau.com/art I think the souls who have the knowledge of both the dark depths of sorrow and high divine vibrations of happiness are the most empathetic of all. They feel others more than others; they tend to sacrifice for others more than others; they go through miles and miles for others. But they've got to realize, that their sensitivity and empathy should not cross the boundaries of their capacities. There should always be the presence of mindfulness and logic as their protectors to avoid being manipulated by others. In the absence of these, they become the utter stupidity of all. But the wisest of all, the other way around.

  Let’s discuss this poem. The poet, Alan Brownjohn Sometimes I sit with both eyes closed, But all the same, I’ve heard; They’re saying, “He won’t talk because He is a thinking bird.” I’m olive teen and sulky, and The family say, “Oh yes, He’s silent but he is listening He thinks more than he says” “He ponders on the things he hears, Preferring not to chatter!” And this is true, but why it’s true Is quite another matter. I’m working on some shocking things In order to surprise them, And when my thoughts are ready I’ll Certainly not disguise them! I’ll wait and see and choose a time, When everyone is present, And clear my throat and raise my beak And give a squawk and start to speak And go on for about a week And it will not be pleasant. Themes Criticism of caged animals - an eye opener for people who disregard animal’s love for freedom. False pride of humans - taking so high of the bird when they do not even understand the emotions of the bird. What brings out the humour in this poem?

Caesar, He was everyone’s pet, He played with everyone, Even went with his kidnappers once, He trusted humans so much. And so when he finally opened his eyes into the midnight, Death was by his side, And he went with Him too. Thereafter, There was no more of Caesar, Caesar ceased to be. Goodbye, Caesar! Have a good time, wherever you are now!

Let's discuss the poem. I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree, And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made; Nine bean-rows will I have there, a hive for the honey-bee, And live alone in the bee-loud glade. And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow, Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings; There midnight’s all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow, And evening full of the linnet’s wings. I will arise and go now, for always night and day I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore; While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements grey, I hear it in the deep heart’s core.           The Lake Isle is an island in the middle of the lake called Innisfree located in Ireland. The poet in his poem vividly paints the beauty and the serenity of nature through the lake Innisfree. The poet points out the soothing effect of nature on mankind using different techniques in the poem t
