Standing With You For A Color Snap Poem by Akhtar Jawad

Standing With You For A Color Snap

Rating: 5.0


Snap o you the youths of the moment!
Save your smiles in a color photograph,
Please do not call me there to join at once,
I am cleaning my black and white dusty graph,

My rise and fall, my innocence and her caresses,
I am activating my dormant feelings not yet dead,
Let me give colors to it, imagination is at my discretion,
In your color snapping the child in me will be misled,

I know with you I shall smile and enjoy, but,
An old man is updated here in his new frustrations,
Learning how to control tears in in the old age,
How to find a pearl in the new tides of old oceans.

Reacting on caresses, though black and white,
With the gift of a smile from your grand grandmother,
Sweethearts! I shall soon join your colorful world,
And lo! Her I'm with you, your smiling grandfather.
