Why? Poem by Md. Ziaul Haque

Why are you like Helen so beautiful?
Making all others go fool,
Why are all the planets round?
Why does my heart long for thy sweet sound?

Why are some of the best things, like air, water, free?
Why is green the colour of a tree?
Why does the minute hand love and chase right?
Why is the Tajmahal more beautiful during night?

Why do people like Agamemnon quarrel for power?
Why do we divide ourselves between higher and lower?
