wahed abdul Poems

Misty image of my village
drops of first rain in the summer
fragrance of damp soil
Smile of jasmine in the backyard
...

The seconds flow into me turn sands of desert
The pleasures tap on my heart become knocks of sorrow
The dreams fall on my eyes break into pieces of night
The nights stretch into life, days shrink in their death
...

Atlast
Eventually
After all
The deafening silence shattered
...
