Would You Poem by Sadiqullah Khan

On your line across the forehead
Impassioned on the prey
A Saracen would carry falcon
With much pride
Riding his arm
The deep waters are rough
Know the art to surf
In the serenity of the night
On the edge of old pond
The traversed line of the sky
Would you connect
To the divinity of being
Would you then
And after many years are past
Would you listen to the whisper
Would you listen to the silence
