S.Zaynab Kamoonpuri Poet Verse

The Value of Blessed Oxygen and Life

Dear ALLAH I thank you
for every single precious breath
And when you'll place us in paradise
   We shall thank you then for death.

People round the world gasping for breath, breathless,
short of breath, some unable to catch their breath, 
       some breathing their last,
 some on artificial costly breathalysers .
How many times do we thank God 
for the countless free breaths we breathe our entire life??
Oxygen o2 more valuable and scarce than diamonds nowadays.
         Respiration, the main need of all life
Those who eventually recover from covid and find their breath again
             can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Yet heavenly sights in paradise  will be sure 
            to take our breath away anyway.

           Life or afterlife
      Here and hereafter
   Life's a gift from God
 Now and thereafter 
Why end it here and now
Why not extend fun and laughter?
When my DNA and RNA expires with me
  May God Resurrect and revive it in me
I live and die for an extension of life in afterlife 
   God grant me that part eternity
To search for the meaning and purpose of life 
   is to search and find the Creator of all life
      i know there's out there somewhere 
     in Allah's universe, a heavenly portal
      that will lead me to eternal bliss 
            designed by Allah the immortal.
Imagine a perfect heavenly life with no fear , death or problems
That's a life to die for, when Allah transports us to those realms.

    An abode with no sickness or illness
Only peace and total eternal happiness 
No viruses but rather real flying horses like real Pegasuses 
   We could get to ride and fly the universe 
   with angelic wings without planes or buses
But you have to work to earn and deserve that heavenly paradise
        Just follow God's latest holy book, so perfect and so wise.

M. L. Kiser November 3, 2021 at 2:24 PM I do believe that God is out there somewhere among the many universes. Well penned thoughts.

Christuraj Alex July 29, 2021 at 4:37 AM A beautiful write on this subject. Congratulations on your win! S.Zaynab Kamoonpuri October 21, 2021 at 9:10 AM Thanks for letting me know!

M. L. Kiser June 27, 2021 at 9:21 PM Very fascinating and to the point; we have had a unique opportunity to review our lives, family, friends, as well as, others across this world for over a year now; it's been a time of introspection, for so many. The losses, are not necessarily losses, they have moved to another life and no doubt are still watching over us. Well penned.

Ajani Ibrahim June 8, 2021 at 1:22 PM Interesting piece of poetry. Alihamdulilai

Judy Ball June 7, 2021 at 2:05 PM This is such and exceptional and humble piece recognizing The Almighty for Who and What He is. He is The Loving Father of Life. It is He and only He that we have to please. No one else matters. We should be so grateful for every breath we take and take car f our surroundings that we don't pollute it anymore and remember that our bodies are the temple of The Holy Spirit and to pollute or corrupt that is an insult to Him. Great job here. A fave for me. God Bless, JB

Sotto Poet May 20, 2021 at 1:32 PM Very well done, caring and appreciative. For those who are deprived of oxygen, it becomes the primary activity of their daily lives. I am unquestionably thankful for every breath that God gives us for free, S.Zaynab Kamoonpuri May 20, 2021 at 11:43 PM I’m glad you noted the caring and appreciation in this. Thanks so much for blessed comment, God bless,

Connie Marcum Wong May 20, 2021 at 9:42 AM To those deprived of breath it becomes the most important action in life. I am indeed thankful for each breath and that I am able to take a deep long breath. My husband died of COPD and he could not. Your wonderful poem makes us aware to be thankful for what takes place unconsciously. Brilliantly composed S.zaynab. Blessings, Connie S.Zaynab Kamoonpuri May 20, 2021 at 11:41 PM I’m happy that you are able to take long breaths friend and nice to know how thankful you are for it too. Sorry to hear of your hubby’s passed on, my condolences dear. I like how you phrased what you said. Warmest thanks,. Take care,

S.Zaynab Kamoonpuri May 20, 2021 at 5:01 AM Yeah we all are guilty of taking our breaths forgranted, you so right!! Thanks soo much for cool super comment!! Best wishes,

Carolyn Devonshire May 19, 2021 at 8:01 AM If anyone questions the importance of a single breath, they should examine the death of George Floyd. It would be wonderful to live in a Utopia, free of sickness, war and hunger. I love the image of "flying horses like real Pegasuses." A thought-provoking write. Best wishes, Carolyn S.Zaynab Kamoonpuri May 20, 2021 at 4:59 AM Hi, im glad you noted the mention of pegasus. Heaven does seem utopia but with God its not surprising its true as many believe so ftom different religions. Yeah poor Floyd his breath stamped out, so sad and cruel. Warm thanks for your care and comment.

Sara Kendrick May 18, 2021 at 2:14 PM I believe in God and Jesus Christ His son. I believe those who have accepted Him as their Savior will go to heaven. I feel the end of this age is soon but of course, no one knows the hour so it could be minutes, seconds, days, weeks, months or many, many years yet to come for I don't know for sure just feel that everything on earth is shaping up for it to happen. I enjoyed reading your work and about your beliefs. Thanks for the visit to my page and taking time to comment on my work. Sara S.Zaynab Kamoonpuri May 19, 2021 at 3:28 AM Yeah we too believe in Jesus as Messenger of God so he is our saviour too and he prayed to Allah even in bible. So warm thanks for your comment dear,

David Kavanagh May 18, 2021 at 1:07 PM Heya Zaynab, such a well penned poem of hope and faith in God, I myself am agnostic, but still search for answers on earth and in the cosmos, it’s really difficult for me to believe what I don’t truly understand, but I’m delighted your at peace, with your own beliefs, it’s a blessing in itself, cheers David S.Zaynab Kamoonpuri May 19, 2021 at 3:26 AM Yeah agnostics can still enjoy my poems for literary fun . If there is anything specific about theism and religion you don't understand i can explain though. It is like you said a poem of gratitude and hope for blessings . Thanks for the comment, cheers!
