I believe that poetry is one human expression that effuses naturally in any emotion.

Anybody who has taken the initiative to put pen to paper, to color a bare sheet in the ink of his emotions will know the satisfaction of seeing his own piece of emotion staring back at him.

I believe it does not matter how famous a poet is.   Maybe one can't write as well as Ghalib could, but he could be equally effective if another person identifies with the mood of his sher.

What follows are some of my favourite sher's, and their ratings, by me.  If you feel differently about any ratings, you could  inform me. You could also contribute any sher (yours or anybody else's) by going to the bottom of this page !!.
