nafisa baheranwala Poems

Whatever be the state of your wealth:
These are what will affect your health -
To me they are the ‘Golden three'
That can either bind, or set us free
...

Ships that sail in the sea of life
That can help avoid sorrow and strife
Are there to help, when you are adrift
For they are, indeed, Fortune's gift
...

The long lazy days of summer are fast approaching
They are, upon the joys of spring, encroaching
Drowsy, boring days are not far off
As seasons change, they bring cold and cough…
...

Be the first to see
The opportunities that knock on the door
Then be the first to strike
While the iron is still hot.
...

Eyes blazing with desire
That transcends all peaks
A response from the beloved
It desperately seeks
...

When you leave something for later
It disappears from sight
So do it right now
Before day turns into night
...

If you Face the rainy season
With fewer sighs and grunts
It will be a cheerful dance
During the summer months
...

There are some days
When you do nothing but sigh
Remember, then, my friend
It's always good to cry..
...

In the midst of life there is death
And in the midst of death blooms another life..
A tiny seed has the capacity
To grow into a mighty oak
...

The power of One
One smile to a stranger
Can start a friendship
One word of repentance
...
