An Anthology Of English Poetry: The Rainbow

Robert Frost once said: “Poetry is when emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.” Hence poetry is the manifestation of “the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings’ gushing out of “emotion recollected in tranquillity”. ‘An Anthology of English Poetry : The Rainbow’ a tiny poetic work is the compilation of twenty-seven poems written on diverse themes giving the poet’s deep insight into emotion which has again soared to the culminating heights. Each poem like a flower unfolds its petals of meaning gradually. When the poems like flowers begin to bloom to spread their fragrance they add special piquancy to the taste of reading. Thus ‘An Anthology of English Poetry: The Rainbow’ gives out an ardent colourful aroma and carries a sense of happiness to the soul of a reader. As a diver dives into the deepest part of the ocean in search of pearl in the same way the poet has delved into the depth of the themes of the poems in search of poetic essence. After reading the entire poetic work a reader will receive an eternal bliss just as a beautiful girl feels delighted at the sight of two swans a cob and a pen playing blithely on the water of lake. The poet has tried to create a wing of thoughts with the feathers of words to help his emotion reach to the depth of soul. It is hoped that the readers will enjoy reading all the poems.
