Poems : The food for the Heart !

Man first seeks food, then shelter and security. Then comes hunger for the brain and the heart.

Education perhaps suffices to an extent to intimidate the brainy hunger. But literature is the only substitute which has the highest potential to satisfy both. Let's have some poetry.

Here is one of my most favoutite poems :

Most wounds can Time repair.
But some are mortal --- these :
For a broken heart there is no balm,
No cure for a heart as ease ---

At ease, but cold as stone.
Though the intellect spin on.
And the feet and practised face may show
Nought of the life that's gone.

But smiles, as by habits taught ;
And sighs, as by customs led ;
And the soul within is safe from damnation,
Since it is dead.
