Thank God..

Hope

when the heart was dim

everything seemed dull to these eyes

when the hope has come back

the life raised quite fresh 

standing in the flowing current of life 

~+~

Life Back

Flowers, flowers, every where

blessing, sunshine and love

why the heart is happy so much..

a dying hope resurrected

some one rose from dead

a putting off star became a sun

the spirals of mysterious fate

and its crests and troughs

and pains and fleeting happiness,

all estopped at a moment

no queasiness, nothing now,

but peace, timelessness and relief 

who took my heart and met me to the light of hope!

this is You, O my Lord! Allah!

Poetry: Total sum of our life..

The sum total of our life is a breath
spent in the company of the Beloved.

Why?

why not there is prosperity everywhere instead of poverty, and youth instead of old age, and life forever instead of death?

Reply: If there were prosperity everywhere and no poverty, then who would thank (shukr) God after getting prosperous !?
if there were youth and no old age, then how one would know about humility (ijz) !?
if there were eternal life and no death, then who would remember (zikr) God !?
