My Boll He was tilling the field Black soil for cotton yield 'Since time immemorial' I told her, as a peasant Putting on her head, a crescent My cotton, you are my boll I g her face And the eyes roll With a peculiar droll Aftab Alam www.PoemHunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive 7 ~freedom ~ Freedom is like a rose with fragrance It is the word with complete balance Freedom tree bears fruit of tolerance Freedom is killed by the fool's igrorance, Long live freedom on this green Kingdom I know freedom is the instinct of nature, Freedom makes humble- peaceful future, Never use freedom as an arrow of hatred, Those who used, they made earth only red, Long live freedom on this green Kingdom ©2015 Aftab Alam Khursheed. All rights reserved Aftab Alam www.PoemHunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive 8 ~oneness ~ Many died, many killed, All they come and gone, They contacted, guided, 'Whisper-Their primitive phone' Where is the tower no one has seen? We do pray and whisper-I mean The Chosen is the Lord, Almighty is Almighty-Lord's of the Lord, All say it is difficult to define—Almighty But it has a definition- Almighty is one and only one, Everybody calls him when in need By many names -Indeed, He is neither male nor female, He is neither Husband nor wife, He is alone with no partner, Thus he can't reproduce like us, He has not produced like us, So He is unique—none comparable unto Him Aftab Alam www.PoemHunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive 9 ~true Love ~ Often I think-What's love? Why it's difficult to explain? Un-uttered, un-whispered -soul to soul, eyes to eyes, Two hearts attached within wave with the unseen chain, None can separate them- fearless-they die if one dies, Aftab Alam www.PoemHunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive 10 ‘o' Jinny Of Sweet Love She hid in my mind, My inner eyes can see. O Aftab! can't you find! She is always within me. She promised and left, To greet me at home, Her promises, I kept. I am a waiting gnome. I am not a love oozy, But I love her most, I am not a love choosy But I was her love host. ‘O' Jinny! my sweet love, A sweet song of my dream. I lost you not, my dove, 'Blinded with lost beam.' Aftab Alam www.PoemHunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive 11 ‘o' My Almighty Is it tears of the night? Or pearls of the day! Is it woes of the star? Or dancing feathers gay! Is it Lord's holy earth? Or Devils dropping bay! Is it freedom palsied gift? Or trapping rosaries say! I am puzzled with thy puzzles, Gone mad with the 'dyeing day', Either snatch out my freedom: Or make me a slave to pay. I prithee- ‘O' My Almighty! Listen carefully -what I say.. Aftab Alam www.PoemHunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive 12 ‘tis The Truth, Yet, A Dream, Indeed.. I'm not a song to be sung, For me, life is always hung, Between need and greed.. Knew not, fame to breed, Entangled not ‘tween caste and creed, Whereas, I also keep the tongue, The human mind is the human folly, The human mind is the angelic holy. Something buzzed, something rung, "Princely born, Priestly adorned, followers of moon, Changing mind, always find, ye moony- swoon, Ye the killer of humanity, ye the savior of humanity, " Soil under my feet forced me to flung, Dumb and deaf, unconscious and lost Someone whispered, "Ye failed to heed" Ah! I'm not a song to be sung, For me, life is always hung, Between need and greed, ‘Tis the truth, yet, a dream, indeed.. Aftab Alam www.PoemHunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive 13 “happy New Year” “Happy New Year” Amid darkness, Slowly-slowly moved the sun We all danced, sung and enjoyed with fun Forgotten everything and with holy heart; dear I wish you all with peace call, “Happy New Year” Aftab Alam www.PoemHunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive 14 “kill Not, Innocent Any More”. Hush! Doesn’t your heart weep, eyes get no sore? No love! No mercy! “Kill not, innocent any more”. What religion and faith, away from humanity? Heard not the cry, the grief, at sudden sunset Death laughs, heaven shy; with humans infirmity Devil tangled, sat on head; teaches ugly pretext. I am not a learned, yet, it is known to me perfectly No Book has ever taught to kill innocent mercilessly Away from humanity- hedge, devils silently whisper In disguised, evil verses recited, as a holy character! Beware, O! My brethren, beware, awake! Awake! Sleep not, awake! Un-blinded, from thy deep slumber Forget not dear, think we are one, just you remember We all feel pain and grief, how you can enjoy the ache! Wounded, thought aches, hate myself, with gore, Save me, save the humanity, love, from your core Hush! Doesn’t your heart weep, eyes get no sore? No love! No mercy! “Kill not, innocent any more”.
