Disappeared Ones
Dr. Jawad Nasir*
Two little plants grew up in a tightly hug way.-
–
Together with the breeze they would sway.
–
stem with stem ,chest with chest
–
Small soft branches of one curled over other
–
Like a child embraces his mother
–
or the lover throws his folded arms over other.
–
Such been the harmony of their leaves
–
A single melody wind would make
–
from the dancing singing leaves.
–
It did confuse the visiting bees
–
The flower they just nectared was whose?
–
BUT one sorrowful moon ill fate stroke it hour
–
An allien evil from far land
–
So unloving ,so unwanted ,so tanned.
–
so disrespectful to the customs of love
–
So Unknown to Bulbul and the Dove
–
So cruel to Garden’s blooming buds.
–
IT did what it could ,it did what it wanted
–
uprooted one plant away from the other
–
And disappeared it into unmarked clouds for ever.
–
And kept the Half-Stripped ulcers of other
–
On an endless waiting gaze for upon vast sky cover
–
– A hope so repeatedly tested to wither
–
That one day He may return with the rain
–
ANd then they would eternally hug again !!!
