Alphabet of life, love and death

by Khalid M Darwish   Jun 9, 2012


Infancy and Childhood, A-G
Able to live even with obsolete liberty,
a baby creeps to get mother's swab,
By which he wins that tenderness
of her heart full of passion and mercy
Crying, being weaned, for lack of toys
trying to walk and talk with loud
Dreaming to be flying without wings
In space or diving into so deep sea
Eager of getting childhood innocence
far away from the dastardly thief
Feeling what teen may cache for future,
and thus hiding secrets in its bag
Glancing a glimmer of hope in the horizon
bearing pure teen without any ditch

Adolescence, H-N
Hand-in-hand with a nice teenager in need
and the childhood dress taken off, saying Hi
It is not recommended to have a loose relationship
just with a teenager but of an unknown page
Just a little of modesty can make it work
then a word or a glib touch as a starting spark
Kindling a simmering fire of love trove
as all creatures instinctively used to do it all
Long lasting is the sincere and honest love
where integrity is felt deeply by both of them
Mentally, integrity is a holly property of God
and we are thus given the wisdom to gain
No one is perfect as far as love is concerned,
but we take advice of experts of years ago

Masculinity O-U
Obligation of both partners being engaged
in a forward-looking to a nice marriage trip
Pleased marriage always yields lovely kids
But the deft couple can always make it unique
Quote says "curbing the evil's door is obligatory
when everyone becomes a refugee at God door"
Rational husband is that who brings fun to wife
where there's no place for personal differences
Seeking for happiness is always obligatory
otherwise one have to sleep on a thorny mat
Time factor is gold for people close to forty
where the spectre of ageing is chasing you
Unless one be optimistic with wife and kids,
life becomes extremely boring for lack of love

Disability, V-Z
Voluntarily or involuntarily, death is approached,
where one has to be prepared for the divine law
What you have prepared will be accounted
and will determine your mysterious fate matrix
Extraordinary happy afterlife is mostly prepared
for peons of good dedicated work and integrity
Yet, those who do not repent bad deeds will regret
unless they retrieve their work not to freeze
Zealots are not acceptable due to their bigotry
but real worshipper will smell the paradise breeze

    You're right. It took me almost three days to finish. That was because I was stuck with searching some words beginning with X and found nothing related to my poem. This was very funny. Have a good luck my friend.
