Heaven On Earth Poem by KIRIT SHAH

Heaven On Earth

Rating: 4.0


Heaven on the earth
Knock on door stopped morning prayer
Two men with badge asked for Salman n Akbar '
Our sons, why? ' Shocked Rahman and Begum
Need to check their rooms n computer
Hit with brick on head fainted Begum
Why? Panicked and stunned cried Rahman
Our sons are at college,
'A' students with big dream
Begum is maid and I drive the cab
We work day n night to help them right
They smart, straight A and they could do no wrong
Not true, said the agent, they got caught with bomb
No sir, no, no. Cried hard Rahman
We prayed, we worked hard, we raised them right
All we wanted to have them heaven
Heaven on earth.
