Pearl Of Peace Poem by Akhtar Jawad

Pearl Of Peace

Rating: 5.0


I opened my eyes in a world in that
Jacks of all but master of none
were preferred every where,
but now the world has been completely changed.
Modern age is the age of specializations.
One who is master of only one thing
and he is specialized in it
is mostly preferred.
But one thing I must say
though I am master of none
but being jack of all
I do not depend on others.
Affairs of my day to day life
are successfully dealt by me.
Only under a blue moon
I need a doctor
or a mechanic
or someone specialized in a particular field.
The jack being self sufficient
leaves the bed early in the morning
remains busy all over the day
goes early to the bed
and enjoys a sleep
that is so deep
that like a diver the dreams
when dive into him
get a self satisfied and content shell
with a pearl of peace in it.
Imagine the reflections
imagine the retractions
of the pearl acting as a prism
and making the dreams
a colorful arch
violet, indigo and blue
green, yellow, orange and red.
Every night I pass in looking
where go the two ends of this colorful hyperbola.
Infinity when asks someone to play the vocal musical instrument
and the tune when sings
'Come for the prayers,
prayers are better than the sleep.'
I beg pardon from my beloved sleep
cleaning my body and soul
When I bow my head
before the infinity
the infinity says to touch the earth by the forehead.
That's the life of a jack who is master of none!
