Pluck A Star Poem by Akhtar Jawad

Pluck A Star

Rating: 5.0


Wherefrom he comes whereto he goes
I have seen him, he is distincly visible
colors dance and his aroma sings a ghazal
a light that fills moon and the stars
a dark complexioned with so many names
so many faces, every night with a new face
shy on his night, appearing as a twilight
like the breasts of bride after wedding night
green are the leaves with his message of love
what of flowera he kisses even the thorns
rises with with unforseen beauty like a virgin
drunk and lanuishing sets in the seas.
He smiled and replied, "I am just a mirror."
A star, haven't you seen billions at the night sky!
But I don't know whose image I am?
Definitely, there ppears someone in the glass
don't look at me, see me in the cold moon
and kiss the moon with your eyes
the universe is his image but it's converged in your heart
yes, that ancient and infinite lover can stay there in your heart
the night is too small, pluck a star for you and love
the sky full of millions of stars is for you.
Only he lives who is alive in love
see how peacefully he embraces his death.
Millions or billions of years it may take to be reorganized
it's a cycle we are organized to be disorganized!
it's a cycle we are organized to be disorganized!
