POETRY OF SHAHID ABBAS


 

"BELOVED RAIN"


Today, you are pouring on my heart I remain alone, but then you arrived and behaved like a soul part I'm in love with you since the day When you washed my sorrows and I had no words to say. You are the beauty of all beauties which rebirth the wonders I never move to any trees under Come what may, we love each other, Thus no need to look for another I can't hide my emotions as my eyes get wet, When your drops pour on me as I sit You are my beloved I remember the day when someone shoved And I found myself among the heavenly drops Wow, the love at first sight after the meeting I never stop You and I are loyal friends We adore each other and never offend You are my everlasting crave In your company, I wish to make a long drive You are the cause of happiness for all creatures, You nourish the beauty of all nature Since the night I waited for you as I gaze at the sky, I talked about you to a pretty tiny sparrow, she smiled and replied Oh, Divine lover I don't fly high But I have been told a secret by one who never lies Your beloved is coming through the heavenly door So there is no need to wait for more. © Shahid Abbas
