Cactus And Dew Poem by Shaikh Ayaz

Cactus And Dew

Rating: 4.0


I am a cactus from Thar,
and also the dew, which knows no thorns,
Is not pricked by them;
It falls on a deserted village
or a garden
With the same freshness;
the bee can soak its wings in it
but cannot sting,
And wasps
Can fly away with it, buzzing;
The sun flower can see it take flight
As soon as the sun comes out.
