Khairul Ahsan Poems

When a peacock dances,
With its tail and plumage spread out like a fan,
Oh! Does he at all care about where he began?
...

I was then a young boy of ten.
Was doing homework, before the afternoon game.
The door was closed but the window open,
When I nearly finished, came a surprise, sudden.
...

My Guru forbade me
To touch you, ever!
But I was allowed to
See you, talk to you,
...

I seem to have lost my way,
At this time when I'm turning gray.
Can some one take me home, by the way?
...

She woke up gleefully at dawn,
With barely a half night's sleep done,
As her husband skyped her last night,
To tell her he would come home tonight.
...

Among so many different flowers
In the hilly slopes and the valleys,
Stood a solitary one in the corner,
That singularly caught my eyes.
...

Days are passing by, in a state of ‘Locked Down'
Imposed by the unseen authority
Of COVID-19.
...

Prayers For A Lonely Soul
I stumbled across a lonesome post
Among the hosts of others,
On a Facebook Group page,
...

Women and Nature,
Complement each other.
Both bear progeny,
Hurting their anatomy.
...

Whatever we cling on to,
However strongly-
A hand of support,
A heart of love,
...
