Welcome 2013

Behold the sun of two thousand twelve go It rose on January one with pomp and show Like dethroned Presidents of many countries whose National wealth decline and personal grow Two thousand thirteen ushers in On it the people and nations their hopes pin One more promise one more hope Spain and Greece will climb up the slope Portugal will once more its glory regain New York will not be devastated by rain Rulers and kings will perform such feat The year will poverty and hardship defeat Taliban and Al-Qaida will meet their doom On the heads of Syrians death won’t loom Deprivation and misery will rule no more Greed and lust will see the door Religious intolerance would be words unknown Skies won’t see the flight of drone Kashmiris and Palestinian’s plight will end People would rally and freedom defend Victory of justice protection of rights Lust harnessed that misery invites Human souls saved from hunger, disease World will witness life expectancy increase This will prove a different year Hearts will know no tyrant’s fear

Thanks for your kind appreciation, Anne. Hope is always better than despair. I am a great optimist. I am sorry for my delayed response to your comments. I was busy attending a Two Day International Conference of Writers & Intellectuals organized by Pakistan Academy of Letters in Islamabad. I flew back to Karachi only last night. God bless you for your sweet thoughts. Love. -Mohammad

I am so pleased you like my poem of hope in today's troubled world. I beleive that world leaders should learn from the past and plan the future in keeping with the hopes and aspirations of the oppressed people of the world. This alone will bring cheer and happiness in lives. Thanks for your kind words. Love. -Mohammad
