455 Years Ago (23 April) arrived Shakespeare

We all know and so celebrate a living ICON.

No stars***** please
In front of him we stand
as dwarfs
ALL

Stratford-Upon –Avon …455 YEARS AGO
The bard
Ladies and Gentlemen
Today some 455 years away
An infant was born
to become the Bard
Who’d
never be forgotten
by not only Stratford –Upon- Avon
but
The entire world

Such souls come once
in one’s life time
to live
In the hearts of memorable humanity
for times immemorial

So let the world join
in memory of the one
who composed theatrical
epicurial poems
those live in their existence
even today
455 years away.

No Legend HE

Still living in the
Hearts and Hearths
of literary mankind

No one has been born since
nor will ever be an
Equivalent
the world will ever see

He lives on till eternity
till the Universe
has its boundaries
if at all limited
this will never be

Let us all today remember
the bard
in our own Imitable way
as in the souls of Literature
he will for all times stay
no parallel
nor equivalent

Gentlemen

THE BARD
SHAKESPEARE

Give him a living
Nay posthumous
OVATION

He stands as the
exalted monument
of the Spirit of
Humanity
for ever
on
STRATFORD -UPON -AVON
ENGLAND
United Kingdom
and the WHOLE WIDE WORLD
of the
Internet
Kingdom
Amen!

Indeed his works will live on down the road of time as will Frost's. And for the same reason. Although in different styles they both capture the plight of the common man although in Shakespeare's writing he often set the story among nobility........stan
