MJ Khalid Poems

All of a sudden amid poor halogen light,
In a crowded waiting room she shot into my sight,
a huge distance of time had crawled in, created a gap
I saw her with a beautiful baby swinging in her lap,

For rendering the music of life
The life full of light that opposes darkness
makes us stand upright, heads up.

Her challenge to identify her, gave me a shock,

Under the Gulmohar
I found a replica of Passer domesticus on the ground,
Heads up, I saw the cinnamon brown male with
Grey upper tail coverts,

Finding the shadow
However, it was half moon night
I could see only the shadow flight,
Who thronged into the vessel of my vision?

Handshake with words

Today is Sunday, i am going to Church
Today is Monday; i am going to Temple,

5. Who am I
For a long time
I have been questioning myself, who am i?
My college friend Nilofer is asking me why?
