हिन्दी कविता
रंग
रंग रंग के रंग हजारों
कौन से रंग में रंगूँ मैं?
बेशुमार बेलगाम उम्मीदें
किन बेरंग को रंगूँ मैं?
बढ़ा हाथ थामले अंगुली
"रूह" किस रंग में रंगूँ मैं?
- सुरिन्दर सिंह "रूह"

Urdu Shayari
Gar Pilana Hai
ग़र पिलाना है तो पिलादे हुस्न से अपने
लब में तेरे वोह बात नहीं,
'रूह' लेलिया नाम जो तूने उसका
मेरी अब तुझसे कोई बात नहीं,
दफ़न हम हो लेगें तेरी याद संग ऐ साकी
अब संग तेरे आज से कोई रात नहीं ।

Poet Quotes
"The poet, being an imitator like a painter or any other artist, must of necessity imitate one of three objects - things as they were or are, things as they are said or thought to be, or things as they ought to be. The vehicle of expression is language - either current terms or, it may be, rare words or metaphors."
- Aristotle
"In constructing the plot and working it out with the proper diction, the poet should place the scene, as far as possible, before his eyes. In this way, seeing everything with the utmost vividness, as if he were a spectator of the action, he will discover what is in keeping with it, and be most unlikely to overlook inconsistencies"
- Aristotle
"At the touch of love everyone becomes a poet."
- Plato
"The lunatic, the lover, and the poet, are of imagination all compact."
- William Shakespeare
"My role in society, or any artist's or poet's role, is to try and express what we all feel. Not to tell people how to feel. Not as a preacher, not as a leader, but as a reflection of us all."
- John Lennon
"The poet ranks far below the painter in the representation of visible things, and far below the musician in that of invisible things."
- Leonardo da Vinci
"A subject for a great poet would be God's boredom after the seventh day of creation."
- Friedrich Nietzsche
"A musician must make music, an artist must paint, a poet must write, if he is to be ultimately at peace with himself."
- Abraham Maslow
"A poet looks at the world the way a man looks at a woman."
- Wallace Stevens
"A poet's autobiography is his poetry. Anything else is just a footnote."
- Yevgeny Yevtushenko
"Being identified as a poet in France or Denmark or India one is greeted with gracious respect."
- James Broughton
