Are You Okay?

Poet: Muniza Wasi

By: Hadia khan

I wanted to take care of you
but you weren’t permitting
I searched every nook and hook
but you were always tricking
What phrases you selected
but it was just gimmicking
I begged your pardon
but you weren’t forgiving
I looked for you far and wide
not finding you, panicking
I ask; Are you okay?

THE WIND

Poet: Muniza Wasi

By: Hadia Khan

The wind howling with rage
slamming window’s shutters open
and thrashing on the thick curtains
crashing against closed doors
causing me to shudder
bending big tree boughs heavily
rolling cans in the lane
bringing down things with a crash
creating havoc afresh
the clothes hanging on the line
are scattered hither and thither
the cat sitting on the wall
scampered to hide beneath the bed
birds are flying above their nests
desperate to know what to do
I am standing midst of the scene
dried leaves are roaming everywhere.

Dream on

Poet: Muniza Wasi

By: Hadia khan

Go On And On
And On To Dream

Rest In The Sea
Swim In The Air
Go Deep And Deep
Through Earth Barriers

Go On And On
And On To Dream

Feel Joy Forever
Leave Back Grief
Dry Tears Of Remorse
Smile So Sweet

Go On And On
And On To Dream

I Am With You
Just Cheer Up
If I Were You
I Would Go Berserk

Go On And On…..
If It’s A Dream
Don’t Just Yet Freak
May Be Hallucination
Or A Great Fantasy

Go On And On
And On To Dream

  








 

A Quiet Place

Poet: Muniza Wasi

By: Hadia Khan

I want to hide myself
from rest of the world
and find myself a place
that’s just a quiet place
where nothing worries me
disasters are escaped
no fears anywhere
no matter at stake
where life runs smoothly
and heart is at peace
and wandering here n there
is not a problem to treat
the pace of life is at ease.
