My Anticlimax Poem by Akhtar Jawad

My Anticlimax

Rating: 4.5


With a curiosity I came,
What is life?
Who is God?
Where is He?
I brought many questions in my fist.
With a smile I go,
Life is love.
God is love.
Love flourishes in the soil of beauty
and springs as flowers with colors and odors.
Where there is beauty there is God,
in the sunlight and in the moonlight
in the twinkling stars and in the Milky Ways,
in the clouds that rise and rain
in the freezing mountains
in the rivers and fountains
in the forests and in the plains.
I saw every corner of the earth is in love of life
passing on this love to the descendants
was the climax of life.
Having seen the climax,
I see my anticlimax now.
I came with questions,
I go with answers.
In the return journey,
I am empty handed,
my eyes are closed,
and there are tears in it,
below the partly closed eye lids.
What a scene,
smile on lips and tears in the eyes,
I am saying good bye to my beautiful loved ones!

All creation is an evidence of God's love to humanity. Yes, God is love and life is love. A beautiful and touching poem that conveys a message of faith, life and death and love of family. So beautifully crafted by a great Poet and a great man.

A brilliant poem on love, life and death has been so impressively delineated by you dear respected Akhtar sir. The beginning of the poem begins with love, curiosity, question tag and God. In your inscription I found philosophy of life well introduced in the last stanza in between climax and anticlimax. Many many thanks for sharing this gem. Full vote....five stars.

I see my anticlimax now. I came with questions, I go with answers. In the return journey, I am empty handed, my eyes are closed, and there are tears in it, below the partly closed eye lids.
