"A word is dead
When it is said,
Some say.
I say it just
Begins to live
That day." — Emily Dickenson
My Favourite Poet — Gibran Khalil Gibran
My favourite poet is Gibran Khalil Gibran. He was a Lebanese American poet who lived most of his adult life between New York City and Boston. He has a huge body of works in both Arabic and English, and my favourite of his works and works of poetry as a whole is The Prophet : a fantastic collection of wisdom and reflections on 26 of life’s topics curated in prose poetry of the highest sense.
