Love
Is a reality,
Thar needs many sacrifices,
Scores of patience,
And the hardest is the ability to forgive,
Especially the one we love the  most.

Flip flops
Salmabanu Hatim Apr 2020
A boy named Jamal was coming to see my cousin Yasmin and ask for her hand in marriage,
My cousin was already in love with someone else,
But, she could not refuse her father.
So on the day Jamal came Yasmin was all dressed and ready,
She happily served tea,
Yasmin then invited Jamal out for a walk,
On the way out she wore her flip flops,
As she walked the flip flops gave out a noise like a ****,
Disgusted Jamal cut the walk and left abruptly.

Spring
Salmabanu Hatim May 2019
Spring is here to stay,
Makes your blues go away.
Birds return,
For some spring fun.
The grass is turning green,
Few crocus and daffodils  seen.
A mixture of sunshine and rain,
Nature's incarnation.
Through windows fresh breeze,
To clear away winter's sneeze,
A season of beauty,
A way to say,"Let's party".

Corona Virus
Salmabanu Hatim Mar 2020
Still not contained,
Can arrive in any country any moment,
Be alert!
Don't  touch anyone or things or regret it,
Stuff yourself with vitamin C to boost your immune system,
Slices of lemon in a cup of lukewarm  can save your life,
Be clean,
Wash your hands now and then,
Wear a mask,
Prayers too help,
Be blessed.

Me

Me
I felt me,
Sad, anxious with a heavy heart,
Then I looked at me in the mirror,
Not bad, pretty,
It smiled, quirky,
With a bit of mischief.
Hmm,
I looked back again,
It had confidence,
Gone was the sorrow,
It burst into laughter,
I felt better.

Makes No difference
Salmabanu Hatim Feb 2024
I am still a part of you.
If you love me,
I hold a special place in your heart.
If you hate me,
I am prominent in your mind,
Then you recruit people to hate me,
Till hate becomes a burden for you.
Let go of hate,
Become indifferent,
Or hold me in your heart.

Suicide
Salmabanu Hatim Oct 2019
Your skin is not paper,
Don't cut it.
You don't spill ink on it,
You spill blood from it.
And if you die,
It is suicide,
And since it is not a natural death,
You roam the earth as a ghost until the time of your natural  death.

Only kitty parties,
And neighbouring countries jealous of

And the waves throw me back to the shore,
You are needed in the world more.

Everyone wants to have a say,
Show their talent,

Impart their knowledge,

And even their children
Have mercy.
