Mere living is nothing but living well is everything. Living well should be the aim of every rational human being and literature teaches us to well. Good literature not only provides us pleasures but it also teaches values of life. It enriches the moral fabric of life. It makes life more purposeful and it teaches us to live well. Prof. Krishna Mohan (BITS Pilani) further explains that poetry is perhaps the finest forms of human communication. It can faithfully capture the fluid thoughts, fleeting emotions and vibration of the soul. No wonder then, it is a source of delight both for the poet and readers. Poetry is really the real source of joys and pleasures because it is the language of the heart. It is the criticism and appreciation of life. It expresses sorrows, joys, regrets and such other emotions. Such personal emotions are made universal by great poets. Their experiences are shared by the readers so much that the readers feel that the experiences are not the experiences of the poet only but theirs also. He also tells that a human face is an open book. The more intelligent the person is, the more intelligently he can read the book of human face or can compose a poem. Frankness, honesty and sincerity give everybody an image of a people who can always be trusted. He believes that poetry is the source for creating love and passion for English literature and language among students of all disciplines. Many poets encourages the students that we must read poetry regularly because poetry is the finer spirit of knowledge. It increases the power of imagination of students and lays the foundation for the appreciation of the beauty of language. English is a foreign language and it is very difficult for the students to have the full knowledge of this language. Mostly, the students do not take keen interest in the study of poetry. Hence, this is the moral responsibility of the teachers to attract the attention of the students towards the study of poetry.
