Mahfooz Ali Poems

Take a look in the mirror
and see a beautiful person looking back;
Without focusing on the outer appearance
but on, what's hidden beyond the skin.
...

When I was a little boy playing with bicycle and sipping tea,
I would have a vision of what things were going to be.
I would wear a veil and a boxing gloves all made of leather,
I 'd have a loving girl beside me but, I never saw her face.
...

Mother, she cares,
although we fight.
Mother helps us,
when she needs help.
...

After your day's work is done
Do you ever think of some mother's son
Who may be lonely, sad or blue
Just yearning for some word from you
...

As I walk down
this path of life
I wonder what I will be
nothing has been clear to me
...

Jango and i went to the park
kicked a ball
Jango had a fall
but still got up
...

A hug
a laugh
a tear
a soft whisper you can barely hear
...

Thoughts
are in our mind everyday
some good
some bad
...

I don't have to be told
that you have a heart
which is made from gold
Mumma, are you really dead?
...

He seems to be only a dog.
But he is my other eye
that can see above the clouds;
my other ear that hears above the winds.
...
