The Only One Poem by Sadiqullah Khan

The Only One



Some live to die, some passed, an igno’minious living
Few sang, few fought, few sacrificed, very few forgave; suffered,
Liberty, are not thou a dove on the shoulder of the brave
Freedom, are not thou a candle, a flower, a fresh breeze, a smile
The one and the only one, he lived and let lived in peace.

-To Nelson Mandela, on his sad demise, December 6,2013.
