Who Is Not Sad Poem by Akhtar Jawad

Who Is Not Sad

Rating: 5.0


Why the moon is so much grieved?
Moon light seems absent minded,
How much the stars are restless!
A silence is ruling the leaves,
wind has lost something,
how static is it?
The dew is crying,
without a reason?
Buds, too, are sleepless.
Queen of Night! Looking for the gone springs?
I am restless, sleepless,
having lost my self!
Could I say!
I am not waiting for her!
How can I say,
not waiting for her.
Night is a passing show!
Just for you,
everyone is sad with me!

Our state of mind will be reflected in the surroundings. If we are joyful, everything around will be seen in a glorious light. On the other hand, if we feel low and sad, Nature and all objects in it will have a dark and desolate look! The image of the sad lover waiting for his love is effectively brought out!

A right title as Who is not sad . Yes every human being on this earth is ultimately sad. Because none can satisfy his or her goal or wish which is never ending or ever increasing.
