The Only Worry Poem by Akhtar Jawad

The Only Worry

Rating: 5.0


There descend Adam and Eve
and set their body and soul dancing in the moonlight
making a home below the stars.
Lo, the clouds came suddenly
the dirt has been washed
My God! We didn't see it in the heavens!
Not worried of any dirt now
You will send the clouds,
that will make us green
free of all dirt.
During rains a hut at earth
is better than a palace in the heavens.
We shall follow the green trees
soon you'll see colorful flowers sprung in us.
Amazing water is flowing with a lovely tune,
I remember when You taught us the names
There was a name, river we think,
We could not understand it in the heavens
Now we know what a river is.
Coming below from a mountain
but where is it going?
Let us follow it
Alas! It's no more!
It has been merged in the ocean!
Thanks God for expelling us from the heavens.
The only worry that is painful
is that you'll call us back one day!

Lord will send the cloud. Cloud will do rain very much and Earth will become green. Amazing water flows through lovely water and mesmerizes mind. Rives merge in ocean gives us great teaching to merge ourselves with God in mind. Being worry is painful but being with God we can be happy. Nicely penned poem is shared excellently...10

It is said that even the angels are jealous of human beings because of the richness of life on earth. The narrative appears to confirm this observation. Thanks a lot for a great composition. Thanks God for expelling us from the heavens. The only worry that is painful is that you'll call us back one day!
