Poetry Quote by Rabindranath Tagore — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“We read the world wrong and say that it deceives us.”

“YOU are the big drop of dew under the lotus leaf,”

“যারা কাছে আছে তারা কাছে থাক,”

“The young student sits with his head bent over his books, and his mind straying in youth's dreamland; where prose is prowling on the desk and poetry hiding in the heart.”

“I will deck thee with trophies, garlands of my defeat. It is never in my power to escape unconquered.”

“The child who is decked with prince’s robes and who has jewelled chains round his neck loses all pleasure in his play; his dress hampers him at every step.”

“I held a jewel in my fingers”

“A pear should come to the table popped with juice,”

“I searched for my own heart”

“Rocket ships”

“Poetry, today, is struggling for its space. Poets are writing poems. Readers are not reading poems. Other poets are reading other poets’ poems. They seldom like or appreciate what others write. Poetry, therefore, has turned itself into an unresolving cycle of paradox!”

“Come away, O human child!”
