Need Poem by Akhtar Jawad

Need

Rating: 4.9


Fire is extinguished but the ashes are hot,
Nature writes a story with the same old plot,
How naughty is she with a coin for the slot,

Moves the machine for a new lovely game,
The pointer rotates and stops at your name,
Comes back to you like a pet that is tame,

The eyes are filled with the light of past,
Heart beats are louder once again at last,
And the soul is up with a big bang blast,

Emotions spread, universe is created,
The dormant love by a shake is treated,
Weather is changed cold winds are heated,

The universe so created is confined in a heart,
And the heart is hot for the poetry and art,
Romantic poem outcomes after thwart!

You were a need you are still a need,
For you and your love is the childish greed,
The embryo of love is dormant in the seed,

In the courtship embryo came out as romance,
In the union of life as the pleasure of dance,
When flowers sprung what a beauty at a glance!

You have been always a source of joy,
I never took you just merely a toy,
You are still my girl, me the old playboy,

Play is different but its spirit is the same,
See beauty in this lovely nice rimed game,
If I have any fame it's just your name,

You are still the essence of all my deeds,
You only you, you are need of the needs,
Thoughts and dreams are merely your seeds!
