Moonlight Of My House-Chandni Poem by Akhtar Jawad

Moonlight Of My House-Chandni

Rating: 5.0


When someone says,
You will have to do it,
Do it for me,
No excuses,
No arguments,
What ever may be cost,
What ever may be time,
Too hot may be sun,
You will have to run,
And bring it for me,
I know it's too hot,
The sun is hostile,
And the shop is too far,
My desire at extreme,
I need ice cream.
She appears so lovely,
Who else she can be,
Except Chandni,
My youngest grand daughter,
Moon light of my house.

When someone is possessive,
My love for her,
Is squared several times,
I know it's a weakness.
