From now onwards, I aspire: To be more of a Classic Music than a person, singing myself to all of those who care to listen. To be more of a Classic Story than a person, reading myself to all of those who care to listen. To be more of a Classic Movie than a person, playing myself to all of those who care to watch. To be more of a Rising Sun than a person, shining to all of those who care to embrace themselves with my light. To be more of an Art than a person, mastering myself to all of those who do aspire like I do.

Is there a common ground between lofty thoughts in your poetry and avowed hedonism? Probably you straddle both worlds, and, one hopes, successfully at that. I enjoyed your words and images here and in the poem about flying higher. Thanks very much, Anushka, for liking my offerings and thereby connecting me with your world of fancy. Best…

Hello Sir, Hope you are doing great. I must thank you for each words you have written in your utmost kindness.
There might not necessarily be a common ground between the poems I write and the stated Hedonism. But both of them do define me or somehow my observations. I have recently written a post on my way of Hedonism, I would really appreciate if you could spare some time and have a look into it.
I am glad to have connected with you here. Your comment did make me to think and I’m thankful to you for the same. Looking forward to read more of your’s writings. Keep well. π

Reminds of this Lawrence poem, hope you don’t mind.
Trust – Poem by David Herbert Lawrence
Oh we’ve got to trust
one another again
in some essentials.
Not the narrow little
bargaining trust
that says: I’m for you
if you’ll be for me. –
But a bigger trust,
a trust of the sun
that does not bother
about moth and rust,
and we see it shining
in one another.
Oh don’t you trust me,
don’t burden me
with your life and affairs; don’t
thrust me
into your cares.
But I think you may trust
the sun in me
that glows with just
as much glow as you see
in me, and no more.
But if it warms
your heart’s quick core
why then trust it, it forms
one faithfulness more.
And be, oh be
a sun to me,
not a weary, insistent
personality
but a sun that shines
and goes dark, but shines
again and entwines
with the sunshine in me
till we both of us
are more glorious
and more sunny.
