Poem

Barter

Sara Teasdale

Life has loveliness to sell,

All beautiful and splendid things,

Blue waves whitened on a cliff,

Soaring fire that sways and sings,

And children's faces looking up

Holding wonder like a cup.

Life has loveliness to sell,

Music like a curve of gold,

Scent of pine trees in the rain,

Eyes that love you, arms that hold,

And for your spirit's still delight,

Holy thoughts that star the night.

Spend all you have for loveliness,

Buy it and never count the cost;

For one white singing hour of peace

Count many a year of strife well lost,

And for a breath of ecstasy

Give all you have been, or could be.

A poem for you

Mahfuzul Haq Khan

Love is a name

of a river

Love is a name

of mountain

Love is a name

of flower

Love is a name

of tree

Love is a name

of sea

Love is a name

of a human

Love is a name

of home

Love is name

of everything

Bring that star to me

Tamoha Binte Siddiqui

You say you love me, honey.

But my love for you costs no money.

Bring me no diamonds please

My love sparkles a lot more.

Bring me no crystals, please

My love is even more pure.

Bring me no pearls either

My love is much more stronger.

If you think gold will cheer me

Then, sorry darling, you are wrong.

But, there's one thing you can do.

From my window, a star I see.

Shining so close, bright and blue.

I wondered if that's where we would meet.

Then I knew that the journey to it was far away.

For being spirits, passed through life is the only way.

And death is a high price to pay.

So, I decided to ask you a crazy favour.

To show you will love me forever

By bringing that star to me, if you please.

Bring that star to me, if you love me.

Bring that star to me.

Bring that star to me in my dreams.
