Mohabeer Beeharry Poems

I have no battle to fight
Nor victories or defeats,
Anger or frustrations to collect.
No wrong to vindicate.
...

Stop awhile traveller
On the way of life.
What are you looking for,
Peace, happiness?
...

Winter has come.
This body has grown old
My bones ache and my knees knock
And my heart
...

If by accident
I hurt you, love,
I beg you, hide your tears from me.
This heart cannot take one tear more.
...

I am light,
I am darkness.

I am the way
...

Old age has come to roost
And time does not seem to have time for me.
I am left behind,
A fated fly caught in the web of perpetually shrinking strength.
...

Now and then
At dusk, as the sun
Eases down towards the colour drenched horizon
I seek the shelter of the darkening shore
...

We were together once,
Long time ago.
Our love was eternal
Not like the dying stars
...

Many a year
Has drifted by
Since last I saw her.
Age has now caught up with me.
...

Let me sit quiet
And reflect on what I have learnt from life.
First it is not what one gets from life
But what gives to it.
...
