Poetry is alive
so
Hello Poetry
I'm happy with you!

Dr Zik
A seed which was sowed in fertile land
Remains in the dark to some extent
And suitable environment makes it, "grow"
With great determination, water makes it, “glow”
And it declares one day, “The land is alive”
As the seed was alive
Alive one can prove the others' life
A dead one is not able to enlighten the souls
If you are alive
Prove it with smile
and your transparent inner sight
would be able to merge the light
at a concentric point of hearts of deserving ones
As an eternal light emitting heart can enlighten the soul
As it’s the heart which makes you dead or alive
So life is reflected by deeds not by pulse
And it’s no use of
Whether the blood runs through the arteries or not
Whether you take exercise or not
Whether you are wealthy or healthy
Life is something else
Life is something else
What makes an eye, seed can not try
What makes an eye, seed can not try

Son: “Can a wounded person be cured?”
Father: "Yes, but morally fallen persons cannot be cured."

Don’t worry about my life
Man is mortal
If you want to check my nerves
It’s no use of
If you want to hear my voice
It’s no use of
But if you want to make me alive
Call me for help for needy
Throbbing heart will be struggling
To do something what is possible

When you found yourself
As you were unable to sneeze
to make the germs away from your chest
or even unable to sneer about facing unwanted situations
As you were unable to listen chirping of birds
As you were unable to tickle
Unable to fiddle
Unable to chuckle
Unable to snigger
Unable to heehaw
Unable to twitter a greeting
in the circle of deserving ones
And unable to work for them
Then there is no use of running blood in coronary veins
No use of being called alive person
No use of wandering about in own recognition
No use of prayers ……………… No use of prayers
You were alone ……………….. You were alone

It’s the flower which proves itself with its own example
How to live in a circle of thorns
With a smiling face giving a sweet fragrance
to all and everywhere

A philosopher thinks
A writer expresses
A planner makes plans
A poet feels, conceives and reflects with emotions
To reshape the world using a mortar of love of nature

Dr Zik
Among the twinkling stars
In whispering of air
During uncontrolled tides of oceanic deep waters
In darkness of nights
In narrow mountainous passes
In the dark deep forests
In the beauty of vast deserts
At the oceanic shores of continents
During wandering about the heights of this world
At the top of the Mount Everest
At the depth of Pacific Ocean
I searched you everywhere
But I found you smiling in the core of my heart
In the concert of chirping birds
During the blossoming of roses
With the spread of fascinating smell
And spring was prevailing everywhere

Why does chirping of bird
prove itself a source of calm and pleasure?
I find the answer.
When I often think
“In a mood with which I recall You”

Dr Zik
When I close my eyes
I can’t ignore the inner dashing and transparent world
As all the objects are brightened
And illuminated from the core of heart
Which gets eternal light from you O’ my friend

I am a man
My full name is A Humble Man of Allah
I am in want of permanent home address
I was innocent
I want to remain innocent
O’ Almighty Allah!
Be with me
If You can……..

Love is for those
Who have the power to control hate
And hate is for those
Who have no sense of feeling love
And care for those
Who are care less
