Dr Shamim Ali Poems

In the land of Chitral there is Kalash,
Where the mountains rise and the rivers splash,
There lived a girl with eyes of green,
The most beautiful sight I have ever seen.
...

The Month of December
In Quetta city where snow abounds,
December came with icy sounds.
A winter's chill, so sharp and clear,
...

Snowflakes dance in the winter sky,
A beauty that catches the eye,
Each one unique, a work of art,
Etched in water's dreams from the heart.
...

I miss the snowy night of Quetta,
When the world turned into a magical vista,
Watching from my window with delight,
As snowflakes fell from the sky all night.
...

Tale of Rustam and Sohrab
In days of old, when tales were told,
And legends of heroes were known to behold,
There lived a warrior, strong and bold,
...

Let's plant the saplings of love,
And spread joy like wings of a dove,
For hatred only brings us strife,
And steals away the beauty of life.
...

Grey clouds hover overhead,
Heavy with rain and darkness spread,
I'm uncertain of when the sun will shine,
Wondering if there is any hope of mine.
...

Under the pine tree, I sat and wept,
My heart heavy and my spirit kept,
The tears flowed like a rushing stream,
And sorrow seemed to be my only theme.
...

I shed tears that you are gone my little rose
I close my eyes and pray that you will come back
When I open my eyes and see all that you have left
My heart is empty because I can't see you now
...

Oh butterfly! Thou delicate winged sprite,
Thou art a vision of pure delight,
With hues so bright and patterns divine,
Thou art a work of art, so fine.
...
