M. Asim Nehal Poems

Every year when the leaves fall upon my tomb
and the ants will take 'em away
then the birds will take it to build the nest.
a new life will begin at the top of the shaft.
...

I left the candle of love burning,
Where I saw the fire in coke missing.

There were many literates and laureates around,
...

pedestrian cross,
she looked, gave a gentle smile
at the next cross-road
I passed it to another,
...

We live in this world under one blanket
sky is our canopy and earth is our carpet
all take the same air, water, food and nurture
yet some are happy, some are sad and some complaining?
...

One evening on the banks of the river, I saw the LIFE
Flying like a bird, trying to cross the horizon.

One evening in a flower garden, I saw the LIFE,
...

You come to me leaving all your worries behind
And I will take you to the land of love called Lovers land
Where time will stand-still to follow our instructions
Where the stars will see the twinkling in our eyes
...

He asks me what you have stored for me ……….My LIFE

Oh, how innocent question he poses..
What have you stored for me my Life? ? ? ?
...

Beware of my seemingly innocent countenance,
It may deceive you, but those who have witnessed it,
will always remember, the difficulty they faced,
not due to my proboscis (nose) ,
...

All of the clouds have vanished,
and the I am crystal clear;
what brought them up?
They traveled a long distance to cover me!
...

For some days I have been hearing them
Though, I do not understand the meaning
It goes straight to my heart, through the ears
The tone, the voice and the chord all melancholy
...
