Beauty Of Descending Poem by Akhtar Jawad

Beauty Of Descending

Rating: 5.0


Finally pleasant, no doubt an adventure
I welcome when I ascend, embracing
Softer layers of earth's atmosphere
Don't enjoy, though it's really amazing.

Pains in the ears, decreasing pressure,
The whole sky though becomes a nude
A blanket, not hot, decreasing temperature
Tired of the moon at the greater altitude.

Looking down feel guilty, all the tall
Man and all the man-made crafts
Are becoming small, and too small.
Sexy birds, milky animals, silky crofts,

Are about to disappear from the sight.
Remains a smile, a service dutiful
Hostess may be nice for others, all right
Not for me, so what if she is beautiful?

I look out through the glass windows
Whatever was before my thirsty sight
I find naughty clouds erasing meadows
Anything remained, veiled by the night

Man is born with a complex attitude
I need silk below are the silkworms
My latitude is nicer than the altitude
On the earth I shall face all the storms.

Lakes and rivers, my seas, my mountains
My green fields, my fruits and my flowers
Flying above the clouds I miss the fountains
Raining, I can't touch the soothing showers!

Here go the clouds there comes the moon
I'm descending; lights, stars in rows
My grandchildren will receive me soon
How beautiful now look the windows!

An adventure embraces the softer layers of Earth and amazes mind. Through a dutiful service a smile is drawn. Anything remained veiled is definitely very interesting. An amazing poem is very brilliantly penned...10

a phenomenal poem! the poet in you badly misses mother earth and his dear ones; sojourn at high altitudes is just a diversion! Thanks for sharing, dear poet!

We find beauty in everything no matter where we at. Beauty of nature is encompassing. However, the beauty of nature is more beautiful when we are with our family. A wonderful poem that brings out the best in nature Loved the last stanza. Another great twist from a great poem.10++++
