| [center] Forever Young by Faisal Chowdry I saw you standing there as a clear puddle glare after a Lahore monsoon rain small and delicate like a Japanese origami crane You tried to reach the droplet laced Roses As cold round drops trickled down Your arm I stood behind you knowing the harm of the thorns a second later I heard you cry like a new baby born you turned and looked at me and I could clearly see that the monsoon rain had left the sky and took its place in your eye seeing you in pain made my tiny heart cry I wiped away the droplets from your cheek with my little hands and up from under your eyelashes your eyes sought mine and mine yours the sun began to shine and those rays of light in flight reflected in your smile all the while my cheeks turned red like the roses embarrassed by Ya-Sin that brought us together I looked down because I was shy from the corner of my eye I saw a little hand fit into mine our eyes met again and we began to smile hand-in-hand we ran without a word He had brought us together as we sat under our Acacia Tree that would comfort, protect, and overlook us as long as eternity will Be we sat there our hands in each other’s this was love no hesitation nor stuttering we listened to the song sung by the birds in our tree of a tale of two whose love is forever young and will always Be so long as remain He...

| This one is kinda sad... Untitled by Asmaa Hussein I blink. And as my eyelashes embrace The world changes. One more child is ruthlessly beaten. One more wife is abused shamelessly. Another child is born into a home That can never support it. Another dies from utterly severe Starvation in Africa. One more mother cries because she knows That without food, her baby will die. One more girl is raped And killed in a local slum. One more crime is committed Without just punishment. One more baby girl is given up in Asia Because her family does not want her. Ten more soldiers are murdered in what America knows is an unjust war. One more man is slaughtered while unfalteringly Fighting for his dignity. One thousand more tears splash down Into the abundant sea of sorrow and regret. One million more hearts are shattered and Neglected without a second glance. Countless backs stabbed and Left to bleed in humiliation. Another pair of eyes blink in front of a TV set They belong to the person who does not hear the screams, Feel the pain. A person who can never learn to care They blink passively as if a single blink does not matter. The world can change in the blink of an eye. But some things, Some things will never change. |

| [slm] :) just another thought .... Things- Something are bad; Something are good; Something are sad; Something are misunderstood. Something are great; Something are not; Something fast abates; Something do not. Something are absurd; Something are sane; Something are unheard; Something heard again. Something are nice; Something repel; Something entices; Something never sell. Some things are clean; Something are bold; Something are seen; Something untold. Something intrigue; Something are small; Something unique; Something enthrall. Something are fast; Something are not; Something last; Something do not. 8) [wlm] |

| [slm] [size=2][font=Verdana][color=Navy] :-* Smiling too much..... these are truly beautiful........ Forever Young..... I read the title and just about fell out of my chair.... Forever Young was the theme song for my Graduating Class (so many years ago) ..... Anyway..... Thought to share the words here: Jazak Allahu Khairan For all the Simply Beautiful Poems [hr] [hr] [center]Forever Young Sang by: Rod Stewart May the good Lord be with you Down every road you roam And may sunshine and happiness surround you when you're far from home And may you grow to be proud Dignified and true And do unto others As you'd have done to you Be courageous and be brave And in my heart you'll always stay Forever Young ...................... May good fortune be with you May your guiding light be strong Build a stairway to heaven with a prince or a vagabond And may you never love in vain and in my heart you will remain Forever Young .............. And when you finally fly away I'll be hoping that I served you well For all the wisdom of a lifetime No one can ever tell But whatever road you choose I'm right behind you, win or lose Forever Young .................

Let us go that way... for Jannah[/u] Let Me Grow Lovely By- Karel Wilson Baker Let me grow lovely, growing old-- So many fine things do: Laces, and ivory, and gold, And silks need not be new; And there is healing in old trees, Old streets a glamour hold; Why may not I, as well as these, Grow lovely, growing old? ----Insha Allah ---- [/color][/font][/size] [wlm][/center] |
