Poems

Abortive Bid

"Tried they to shot us nearby, And uttered then a natural one, Alas! Failed like miserable wretch, As howling storm a natural shield, Driven them all at their assigned place."

Womanhood

"They call me a woman And not a human, I am fixed Like a portrait On the walls of society; For there are only few Spectators to see, And enjoy my show."

ON HER PREGNANT SMILE

"O Darling! Thou art, unaware about a love, The love, which I labour to thee, devotedly. Others were reflecting over, sort of infatuation, For some this my insanity, Though doggedly yelling, its thy love; truth."

Come! Rescue me, hold me!

"Give your shoulder to rely; And be home to my parched body; Breeze to my soul and food for my heart; Let me feel you every moment; Before I shut off me; Come! Rescue me, hold me."

BURNT WOODS

"There are some woods I would call bars The arms, made of fire Golden, as act of deceit," writes the poet Sakeena Jabeen.

Mesmerising Childhood

"Played pebbles and hopscotch, Boy and girl as if were one, Gone to picnic to cherish nature, Dressed alike and helped one to one with open heart, Never frowned nor scolded then to one"

THE LEGACY OF HEART

"You are unaware with The place, your respect In my heart, has occupied; Why are you blaming me For my intense love Towards your heart," writes the poet.

O’ LORD

"Listen to yee', I confront them, O' Lord; Still my generosity never selected them, O' Lord; Their narrow-mindedness, clung to their souls; There I could have strived them, O' Lord"
