A Preplaned X-Mas Prayer Poem by Akhtar Jawad

A Preplaned X-Mas Prayer

Rating: 5.0


My Lord! Kill me and send me back,
I don't ask for a very big pack,
Just two wings as I want to fly,
For descending back from the sky,
And a nib with a branch of olive,
Yes, I want to revive and survive.

I want to fly very close to the earth,
I want to watch my mother's all worth,
I want to see Hiroshima and Nagasaki,
Want to see Kashmirs, Indi and Paki,
I want to see the blood of Palestine,
Western Asia, Africa, and Argentine,
Europe destroyed in two world wars,
Stalin's terror in the land of Czars!

I want to test the leader of Vietnam,
I see destruction in my old helpless palm,
Through the ashes of destruction,
Spring new flowers of construction,
Ho Chi Minh said it but how he reformed?
I want to learn how this magic is performed.

So give two wings and a nib to the dove,
And a heart filled in with love only love!

'So give two wings and a nib to the dove, And a heart filled in with love only love! .'............ This is all we can ask for from God the Almighty! In a strife ridden world let us act as the doves of peace and spread the message of love! Enjoyed!
