Purblind Poem by Naseer Ahmed Nasir

Purblind

Rating: 4.8


If some one were to flash a light
Would you be able to see
All those things
Which are lost in the deep swarthy
Liquid of darkness
Life's configuration
Death's face
Body of sadness
Lips of sound, dimples of pain
marble-white feet of happiness
Henna-colored fingers of love
Universes of beloved's tresses
Indeed, the divinely musical shadow of God.......

If some one were to flash a light
Would you be able to see
Wrapped up in the primordial fog
Waiting since life's beginning
Some one's eyes!

This light is the end of hate, the embrace of all of us in an all-around-the-world circle of union... i hope some day this kind of light is gonna shine over us all. hugs.

An excellent write, goes right into the heart and provokes deeper pondering. I think the flash wouldn't do, on the other hand a complete new pair of eyes might work. Greetings! Keep shining! Regards
