I Have A Corner Poem by Khairul Ahsan
I Have A Corner
I have a soft corner in my heart,
For the quiet, unobtrusive child,
Whose talent is often rated low
'Cause he is unassuming and mild.
I have a small corner in my heart,
For those whose kindness I enjoyed,
But couldn't return the favor in kind,
A pity that often makes me feel void.
I have some space left in my heart,
For the boy whose dad passed away,
Ominous fate looming large on his mom,
Her malignant tumor signalling fast decay.
My heart always keeps some space
For the mourning bird that lost her mate,
Fallen to the gunshot of a happy hunter,
Who wanted it be served on a dinner platter.
Come one and come all, if you think,
You would be happy with just a piece,
And not be bothered by who got what,
With everyone shall we live in peace.

What a beautiful poem, my friend, Kairul the poet with a heart so large that half of our world could find some space to lay for an afternoon nap. The other half would happy dance around waiting its turn to lay for a rest. Inspiring poem, thank you fr share!
I enjoyed your poem Mr Ahsan! It gave me hope that there are still some good people out there who show concern and care for the feelings of others. Your words show your heart has a lot of space and kindness to share.
It's a good thing your heart has these corners for the ones most of the world overlooks. A lovely poem.

Certainly not hallucinations! This was so soft and gentle and simple to read... but it says so much, with such conviction. I loved it, I read it twice.
