Youth Is In Full Bloom Poem by Vera Sidhwa

Youth Is In Full Bloom



Now it seems to me, after youth is in full bloom,
That I have found the right key, to the locked in secret of life's room.
When I started on the roadway, I saw passers-by looking at me
And I nevcer guessed their crooked way, till youth bloomed so fully.

On one side of that roadway, I saw my friend's faces full of envy,
All seemed to look at my successful day
With masks of pleasure and insider of jealousy.

On the other side I see the population, pointing guns and knives of
Schemes. It's only occupation.
Is not their progress but the ruins of your dreams.

Every aunt and cousin know, that he is no genius, no prophet.
But each in his smallness grows, Impatient with the other's profit.
Never mind foes and never mind friends, they are not the only crooks,
My aunts and my kins have a crookedness in their looks.
