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.
...

In Karbala, where the sands were stained,
With the blood of martyrs, that was shed in pain,
There stood a hero, brave and true,
Hazrat Abbas, the one so few.
...

The Most Beneficent, Allah,
Has taught you, mankind, the Qur'an,
By His Mercy, He bestowed
The gift of eloquent speech, He sowed
...

Zinnia plays with sea shells in her hand,
On the beautiful Omara beach, she stands,
Making sand castles with her hands,
Ali, Sher Agha, and Tanya, the trip never ends.
...

Ava, my darling grand-daughter so fair,
With a doll-like face and beauty beyond compare,
Your smile is so bright; it captures my heart,
A memory I'll cherish, never to depart.
...

In marriage, we are garments, it's said
To cover faults and guard our modesty
To keep us warm and make us feel complete
And always be attached, you and me
...

Innamal a Malu Binniyat
Deeds judged by their intent
A truth we must not forget
For our actions, we'll be held accountable, yet
...
