Poem


Morning Breeze

M. Mizanur Rahman


Morning breeze is coming from the heaven of Allah!

Are not you enjoying it freely early in the morning?

Human niggardliness cannot give such a pure bliss

Except throwing out gas pollution's poison bearing.


Cannot we turn to the ocean of trees where heaven lies?

Cannot we feel free like the faultless tree without vice?


If we work together en-masse with proper planning loving all

Our Allah-gifted vast expanse of fertile land will give us food.

Then none remains unfed aggrieved and feel ill health's fall.

Then everywhere everyone of us loves each other being good.


Let us have Allah's bounteous gifts of nature for all of us equally.

Let us learn to live and share each other's burden of life morally.



Presentation of remembrance

MA Karim


Will walk from ways this to that

Spend time tired or with emotions

May be I shall not stay on that way.

Like thorns or flower petals

Like real character mixed with story

You will see, never I am beside you.


Today writing that memory sermon

Don't forget, never throw away,

Like me my poem-bunch, word-necklace

This is for you my presentation

 Sometimes those will tell you to laugh

Sometimes cry in melancholy.


You will think that day astonishingly

Just he was but now not beside,

My favourite fragrance of wild flower

The rainbow hidden behind clouds in sky.

The corns harvested from stony lands

Non-melodious songs of way-lost traveller,

All will stay beside you but not me.
