Flora Fountain - Poetic Expression

Poetic Expression

A poem in Gujarati language by Niranajan Bhagat translated to English extols the beauty of the Flora Fountain thus:

A Glass and concrete jungle;
In its midst always
Quiet, comely,
With hope filled face,
she stands
Flora
A dream of spring in her matchless eyes,
holding in both hands stone flowers.
About her, in all corners,
Iron butterfly fly round and round
And life less insects plays

Famous quotes containing the words poetic and/or expression:

    Metaphysics abstracts the mind from the senses, and the poetic faculty must submerge the whole mind in the senses. Metaphysics soars up to universals, and the poetic faculty must plunge deep into particulars.
    Giambattista Vico (1688–1744)

    The novel is the highest form of human expression so far attained. Why? Because it is so incapable of the absolute.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
