REMEMBERING SHAKESPEARE ON HIS 456 BIRTHDAY - Amit Pandey (India)



REMEMBERING SHAKESPEARE ON HIS 456 BIRTHDAY

 

-         Amit Pandey (India)

                                                                                     

Among your every single quality,

You possess Keatsian Negative Capability.

You are a man of lofty thoughts and sublime ideas,

A mouthpiece for humble and rustic, without bias.

You are Shakespeare, the Badshah of tragic and comic dramas.

Fair youth and Dark lady are immortalized in your lively poetic words.

The long twelfth night is over,

The Venetian merchant has delivered the cake.

Macbeth is ready to knife it and Hamlet to take.

All these, he took the toil to make.

Oh, dear! How fortunate we are, Shakespeare's eternal summer is here.

Let's celebrate his special day together with immense joy and celestial pleasure.

And enjoy the cheerful presence of Touchstone, Rosalind, and King Lear.

Alas! we are left with the tolled bell and existence of whole pale.

No matter, our love for you and your creation is genuine and eternal.

Oh, legend, whenever the individual newness will intoxicate us,

The fans of classic will celebrate the gifted day through this verse.

Happy birthday! dear Seasoned,

May the day of celebration never come to an end.
