What A Poet Is Howard Simon Poem by Akhtar Jawad

What A Poet Is Howard Simon

Rating: 5.0


What a poet is Howard Simon!
when he writes a poem on smile,
my lips start dancing,
and I say to myself once more romancing,
when he writes a poem on tears,
I start recollecting my lost years,
my eyes down pour the shining pearls.
When he writes a poem on love,
the old man starts looking at the girls.
A magician is he makes me juvenile.
His poems move
and with his poems
my heart, my body, my soul
all move like light straws,
and I find myself in his poetic claws,
like a bird who is so much used to a cage,
that doors though open,
she never flies back to her nest.
Here she gets love, peace and rest.
Poems of Howard Simon are the mental foods,
delicious, hygienic and cooked nicely.
With his poems I cry,
with his poem I smile.
What a poet is Howard Simon!

Howard Simon is indeed a great poet which makes the reader empathize with what he feels. His poems move / and with his poems / my heart, my body, my soul / all move like light straws, and I find myself in his poetic claws,

We need to have passionate explorers around to know about the galaxies and stars which we otherwise miss due to our limited knowledge. Akhtar Jawad Sahab is one such explorer who is doing exactly the same. His poem on Howard Simon is not only a tribute to the poet but is also like a foreword to the poetry of an outstanding poet. Thanks.
