saadat tahir Poems

In heated frenzy of swirling times
Peeling bells oft deafen chimes

In knotted string of life's turns
...

Palpated her breast, a lump in the throat.
The monster that mama and aunty smote.

Toyed with the pages of a letter she wrote,
...

Paired delectable lilies,
bob on a placid pond.
Spawning ripples and
tsunamis far beyond...!
...

Cousin lover friend and wife!
Days now spent in sterile strife.

Ginger locks by a chiseled face
...

Many a rising sun, I have witnessed, set
Wavering night lamps seen steady get

A Diamond’s worth, none could match
...

Have you ever heard in your mind
the sounds that silence makes
the silence that spreads like music
as in splendor a dewy morning breaks
...

Wealthy round moons supple
rise up to support a lovely neck
and from this cape, earth, itself
forms up to a beauteous beck
...

Bubble forth and crawl inland
Clamber to die on washed sand

Wave after wave of crested peak
...

Don’t you spit; words at us,
desperately now, you mummified cuss.
From your grave,
want to save.
...

(baad'e samoom... wo tazeeana ik lehad ka …urdu)

Just wanted to buy Aasma a doll!
If possible for Haider a plastic ball!
