Tonight Poem by Sidra Mahmood Khan

Tonight
Again sky is showering to the Earth
Quiet walls and sleepy people in houses
Roofs like filled bellies
looking like silent calf
Wolves in tranquility
Nightingales speechless

Pages of some books filled with praise
Even moon in its hut enjoying
Cheeks and lips blushing and smiling

Eyes pleasuring
Whole milieu delighting


But
In a graveyard…….
Still
Few people
Digging….
Tears, sighs, petals and its fragrance
With a corpse in the coffin….
Some drops of water giving its life and
Also crying as falling in bier……

Tonight
Again sky is showering the Earth…..!
