Predator killed wife;
Long back, he killed mother too;
Earth is no garden

Squirrel Haiku
Squirrel, at window,
Fearful of the heavy rain;
I, fearful of both.
At every sunset
A long queue for the burger;
The stomach is damaged.
Someone is knocking,
The old familiar friend; oh,
My Christmas welcome

Newspaper again?

Gaza 2 Haiku
Bombs, best medicine,
Pours into hospitals and
The richest thank God
Hunger and hunger,
Roams in every lane, crying;
Israil claims victory

The injured in 2025
Mohd Arshad Aug 6
I must get down to the injured,
Groaning , but unheard of in the cacophony of vehicles,
And waisted in stony-heart men,
Who, like ******, let the blood ooze out
And brush away the whining.

I must get down to my little son,
Waiting at the school gate,
And I, like a crazy father,
Can't help stopping to receive him.

I must get down to the maimed,
And that's the work of a prophet,
And forget my son, and I know
A little bit wait will make him
What I'm today with this man

The New Year 2025
Mohd Arshad Jul 2024
The evening dust is flying, flying to die
The day is on the cusp of its breath in the sky
The year is sinking in shadows tonight
It will never rise٫ it's dying tonight
The bubbles of dreams and hope are no more
The waves have washed them from the shore
We are left with the only abiding images
To look at them in their hollow cages
I see I see the glow in the steamy sky
The light of the new day passes by
It's the light of the New Year that gleams
It has arrived they are its beams
Let us dream let us smile O my dear
The buds of hope will blow let us cheer
The sea of joys will flow everyone will drink
The ship will sail smoothly it won't sink

Reading
Mohd Arshad Feb 2024
Reading is polishing a rusted mind.

Reading is an adventurous journey.

Reading is a memorable confab because all words speak to me.

Going into a mind is like entering a holy place and reading scriptures there.

Rose Day
Mohd Arshad Feb 2023
The sun is sharp in the sky
Leaves are talking as slowly
As if they are shy of
Making their love in the open
And butterflies are trying
To listen to their feelings
I'm waiting for her
I think i can't better place than this
To put the rose on her palm
And lock her lips with mine

Spring Time
Mohd Arshad Feb 2023
Who is there?
Oh, it's Winter on the pyre!
Who are groaning?
Oh, Frost, Fog and Snow
Are on the galloping gallows!
He would bounce back I know,
But I don't care about Phoenix.
Everyone is glad for the golden days.
Let us go out to sip this beauty!
Don't you see the day is delicious!
See! See! See!
Earth is wearing gleaming-grass;
Daffodils are unfolding
Their golden-yellow cheeks;
Bluebells and daisies are dancing in joys.
Hear! Hear! Hear!
Swallows are fluting their rhymes;
And cuckoos are playing their sweet tunes.
Now I pine for taking
Purple hyacinths from those
Whose hearts are pricked
By my thorny words.
Let us dole out
Snowdrops, lilies and poppies to everyone;
And to you I will give tulips.

Let us cheer
Like the cheering cherry blossoms!

Don't feel depressed
Mohd Arshad Jan 2022
Don't feel depressed
Though you have been defeated
It was just the flip of a coin
That didn't turn your way

Don't feel depressed
Though you have been put to shame
It was just a dark cloud
That loomed over your head

Don't feel depressed
For you are the waves
That can upsize such defeats
In a single moment

Don't feel depressed
For you are behind the fog today
But will shine tomorrow
Even in the desert of darkness

A.. I Stand Alone
Mohd Arshad Nov 2021
I stand alone
When the gloom of dilemma suffocates me

I'm not heading in the wrong direction
As it has been my passion
And I'm going to my cherished destination

But I stand alone
When I need a hand to cover the distance

What tomorrow unfolds will be in my palms
Still I stand alone
Still I stand alone

Mohd Arshad Aug 2021
Behind the almirah,
I saw Anxiety,
Trembling and gleaming
Like the eyes of the rat
That cowers and pants.

I dared to speak to it,

And it like a traumatised patient
Only stared at me

And I, a little child,
Got scared.
