Arts of Poetry and Pottery

Aug 16, 2025

By Shriram Venkatachalapathy


Writing great poetry is akin

To baking pottery in a kiln.


Clay spins into pottery,

Wordplay into poetry.


They are natural crafts,

Not refined from drafts.


Both arts are creative,

Cognitive and emotive.


Each of the art form

Has power to transform,

Only poetry can reform.


By Shriram Venkatachalapathy

Sooper !! A beautiful parallel drawn between poetry and pottery. The imagery of kiln and clay effortlessly mirrors the emotional and cognitive shaping of words. Simple, reflective, and quietly powerful. Good stuff
