Shujaat Rahi

Shujaat Rahi Poems

Angles clad in white
Rustling pinions bright
Whispering through midnight
Spread a dazzling light.
...

Caught in corridors of time
I am holding crumbling walls
Fall, upon my feeble heart,
Pangs and pains like waterfalls
...

Be it freshness, be it bloom
Dawns at those amazing hands
Gazing at that crimson face
Takes one to enchanting lands
...

Embrace of mother earth
Is but caress of silk
The touch of timeless time
Is sweet like mother's milk
...

Tiny Firefly

In the dead of night
Dancing a radiant star
...

Even if there is no traveller
On the desolate way

Go on kindling, keep on lightening
...

7.

The tree that I gazed at, has started growing inside me.
-Rilke, the French poet

The bunyan trees
...

In the grey dusk...
soaring...
the wounded bird
Inscribing on the air
...

I fought against the winds and waves
And dallied with the thunder gust
I wandered in the galaxies
And in the earthly dust and rust
...

Not that I do not not dream or plan
My dreams, my plans all go amiss
Behind the lofty pinnacle
There is a chasm, a deep abyss
...
