Reflection Poem by Akhtar Jawad

Reflection

Rating: 5.0


He needs sun's reflection in the moon,
But I don't doubt in his rightness,
Imagine moonlight, what a boon!
Long live sun with the brightness,
He cultivates heart shaped love seeds,
Sown only in moonlight and that he needs.

But my goal is neither sun nor the moon,
My goal is love of a lovely friend,
Waiting moonlight since burning noon,
Love only love, that's what I intend,
Lo! I have sown the seed in my unseen self!
The forbidding books I have put on the shelf.

Beautiful expression of a simple heart craving for love even at the cost of breaking specious rules of the society we live in. Thanks for sharing the poem. I quote: He cultivates heart shaped love seeds, Sown only in moonlight and that he needs. My goal is love of a lovely friend,
