Soul-Searching
Farah Taskin Aug 2021
I find the gratification of Count Dracula inside a glass of whiskey
When I see a boy wearing blue jeans and a T-shirt
Instead of that I discover him dressed in bark of the Paleolithic period
The green top of a damsel looks like a cinder which is burnt by a severe conflagration
I feel global warming into an avalanche
I explore the revenge of Satan in the vision of a young man who has come to Massachusetts for higher studies
I experience a pit of black hole in conspicuous stars


Inter alia,
The variegated notions of metaphysics come to the deep observations.

Sonorous Symphony
Farah Taskin Jul 2021
The chirp of a sparrow
The sibilant sound of a magpie robin
Cooing of the dove
A swish of light wind
The sound of the flow of a river
The harmonious buzz of bees
The rustling of flowers
An echo spreading over all quarters
The music of a cascade
The roaring of clouds
The calling of the seas
The sound of daybreak
The mysterious mutter in the dead of night!
The classic hum of my mum
(I'm engrossed in these)

MY BELOVED
Farah Taskin Jul 2021
In my mind's sky there is a star
Who shows heavenly light upon my tears
Is my dear
Often I imagine
You come
to my sweet dreams
Beneath a ******* tree,
beside the silver brook
At that moment the red roses of my love begin to bloom
Perhaps we'll meet one day
Perhaps we'll never meet
So we leave our luck to destiny

Behind the Merriment
Farah Taskin Jul 2021
Everyone has unhappiness
A paroxysm of distress
Humans want to cover their unhappiness
Beyond joviality
Beyond laughter
Beyond music
Behind the roistering jubilation
We suppress our sadness
Underneath our liveliness we're stoic
Our hearts don't love sadnesses
We try  to laugh now and again
We ought to laugh for living
We ought to live for laughing
sigh ...

Forget Me Not
Farah Taskin Jul 2021
The sparkling stars don't forget the heavens
The spectacular sun doesn't forget to rise


The wind doesn't forget to blow
Rivers don't forget to flow
Glow-worms don't forget to glow


The violin doesn't forget to sound
A lover doesn't forget his beloved

Like that
I want that
You reminisce about
me
I don't want to be forgotten .

Poetic Moments
Farah Taskin Jul 2021
During the downpour
At gloomy nightfall
In a misty morn
At the silvery and solitary noon
Beneath a star-spangled sky
When my heart is peaceful
or sorrowful
Then
the poems embrace
my contemplation
Farah Taskin Jul 2021
The heady perfume of the
Arabian Attars
is
in the air!
A lunar litter
brings Eid
Antimony sulphide
of the downcast eyes
and the pinkish nails
have been painted with henna


Eid is a glorious gift
Bliss is blossoming
The blessings are blooming


The fragrant roses
and the white jasmines
are being elated by
a joyous colour
of the festivity
The nameless
nightingales
are singing the paeans
We're being showered
with Salams
Eid Mubaraks
are echoing
The cheerful children
are being
over the moon
Eid is marvellously nice
and we sacrifice.
Eid has been delightful since my childhood:)

Romanticism
Farah Taskin Jul 2021
He was staring at her
She was nervously blushing


Her face was turning crimson
His face was turning golden


His naughty eyes were glinting
Her virginal lips were timidly trembling
She was hearing
her heartbeats


He was drinking in her crimson countenance .
Nowadays a face without a mask can be dangerous...so,don't be so romantic...it's injurious to health!

Monotonous July
Farah Taskin Jul 2021
It drizzled
It's mizzling
It'll rain

The sky is sunless
Natheless
It's not alone
The sky has tender clouds
Unlike me
The sky
is never lonely

July has the musical concert
of rain

Love&Hate
Farah Taskin Jul 2021
Love is terrific
Hate is horrific
Love is lovely
Hate is ugly
Love is a cure
Hate is contagious
Love contains antioxidants
vitamins and minerals
Hate contains saturated fat
sugar and calories
Forever love lasts
Hate always *****

Farah's Mind
Farah Taskin Jun 2021
Her mind is deeper than the
          Mariana Trench
     And more infinite than
               Outer space
     Even she doesn't know
           The mysteries
            Of her heart
Her heart is the eighth wonder!
              In her thought
       She's an astronaut or a
                 Cosmonaut
               Occasionally
       She's a stargazer or an
                 Astronomer
              At the same time
  She dives into the vast blue
                    Ocean
      She loves scuba-diving
       She cherishes snorkelling
                  Right now
               Her mind is
                      Darkly
                      Cloudy
      ­          But she knows
           Her mind will become
      Stunningly sunny soon
         When she feels alone
        Her heart talks to the
                  Southern wind
      Her heart's sonata is known
                   By nobody
                Her mind contains
                  Poetic imagery
                      Metaphors
                         Similes
                    Alliteration
                Iambic pentameters
                     Nostalgia
                       Conflicts
                         Stimuli
                       Cumulus
                 Inner lexicon
                       And so on
Her heart is as strange as the
                        Universe
My mind is the wonderful creation of the Almighty . I'm extremely thankful to Him.

Urban Ballad
Farah Taskin Jun 2021
A shiny and tidy city
And a metropolitan highway
The mesmeric magnolia trees
The beautiful bogainvilleas
The fairy tales
Of heartthrobs
The romance
Between a dreamy damsel
And a good looking guy
The vanilla lifestyle of
The middle classes
The angels of mercy are sitting
In the balconies of the rich
The endless waiting for
The dawning of good fortune
Of the poor
Summer rain
Autumn winter
And spring
Change its grace
At night
It's decorated with
Fairy lights
Everyone
Is dazzled by its fascination
During day.
I enjoy the diversity.

An Elegy
Farah Taskin May 2021
The Gaza Strip-
The visible symbol of sadness
In this place
The lives of children are valueless
The lives of humans are valueless
Tears are useless
How worthless
Human life is!
Again and again
Bomb explosions
A gloomy sky
Those who feel for others
Those who believe in humanity
Are depressed dreadfully.
Save children,save humans

PALESTINE
Farah Taskin May 2021
When will  everything  be fine
             For the helpless people of Palestine?
             Why happiness is forbidden for them?
             For humankind this is a big shame!
              They couldn't celebrate this Eid
             It makes 'em bleed
             I always dream about a peaceful Palestine
            There will be heavenly sunshine.
Stop violence against innocent people.
