Best Tazkira Poems


Baqreid the 2nd Eid

This day to celebrate the supreme sacrifice
of the ancient prophet Abraham
This day to ponder and reminisce
that divine substitution of Ismail for a ram! 

This Quranic and biblical factual story
shall never diminish in its age-old glory

That superb reliance on and compliance with the will of God
eternally for man to learn from and applaud.

Upon his awesome trust in the unseen, let his kind marvel
and of submission, devotion to God bestow him a laurel

And now for the sake of mutual unity and festivity
first let all of humanity
release their doves of peace
and let them fly freely, unprovoked, unrestrained
with olive branches in their beaks

such that when angels who predicted
forever feuding humans
look down they see instead
6 billion or more two fingers up
in a huge mass of humanity
signalling for and meaning to keep the peace! 

But mind you, world peace is to be everybody's goal
so let no one leave space for any loop-hole.
EID GREETINGS everybody.

Premium Member Darkness Falls

edgar allen poe: he died on my birthday, but before i was born and before the beginning of the civil war. he might have enjoyed the pale horse of that day, as he endured the hellish bells, bells, bells & belted the raven’s forevermore.

sylvia plath: loved to take blood baths, hated tulips, and was born twenty days after my birthday, many years before. i was introduced to her bell jar in my high school years.

james mercer langston hughes: he invests in the euphrates, congo, nile, mississippi (m - i- double “s” - i - double “s” - i - double “p” - i) rivers, where his soul has grown deep.

robert lindley: the soup’s own dark poet, emotions worn on his sleeve,
he watches the waters flow from the riverbank & returns from ashes and dust

darkness falls and delivers

Nature's Beauty Pageant

Nature held a Beauty Pageant
Guess who was crowned a crest? 
A flowery green meadow was the stage and rostrum
Watch who won the contest.

Well, the peacock from India was crowned beauty King
The bird of paradise from New Guinea became Beauty queen.

And last but not least was the Indian tiger, runner up
But care he for beauty that he might as well sup? 
And what care any of them
for accolades, crown or cup? 

Other contestants were the gorgeous leopards
and the flimsy beauteous butterflies
They'll be crowned
next time around.
For beauty tis rich in supplies.

But nature-lovers alone applauded the flamboyant winners
who gaily stood upon the flora
They did come out with 'flying colors'
Around them nature's beauty an aura.

Miss world bird of paradise yet unaware of her placing
The peacock endowed by God a crown
They might never know  of this showcasing
At our staring, gawping, they might just frown! 

Then there are those unsung unawarded yet perfect beauties
both among  mortals and animals
who join no display contests nor pageants
yet are undeniably glamorous nonetheless
for beauty ain't exclusive
to önly beauty contestants.


Premium Member Poor Cinderella

POOR CINDERELLA

poor cinderella 
her pumpkin coach was delayed
castle clock struck twelve
once again a chamber maid
the handsome prince was dismayed

she was dressed in rags
her glass slippers were old boots
her hair a disgrace
the prince didn’t give a hoot
he knew that beautiful face

so? what did he do?
i’ll not give you the answer
it is up to you
please write an ending, dear friend
to my comments then please send

Martyr's Paradise

With the brave nerve and poetic verve,
I have viewed martyr place in a daydream,
Almighty allocate, there righteous soul thereafter life,
Marvelous, awesome, splendid paradise it Seem,
 
Bowing trees of olive, flowing torrents of milk and honey,
Hanging fruits trickling nectar, Queuing castles in row,
No melancholy, pain and beavering away is there,
Take back the reward of deeds that they sow,
 
Pleased moments, precious time spent in the rogation of Almighty,
Observed happy, contented and joyful faces of all who martyr,
Almighty ennoble them from the rest of world,
We can’t imagine, the honor given to them so higher,
 
The beneficence of Almighty so vast and measureless,
Encompass the whole world from above to beneath,
He will revivify new life to them after death,
They become the twinkling star on cloud nine zenith.

Shahid Hussain Chouhdry

I Need To Walk Away

I have to work
I have to smile
I have to be patient
I have to live with those people 
Who all always hate me,
Because I have no choice 
Because i can't go away
Because I am human being.
I have to temperate myself
I have to inspire
I have to protect me
From all of the hell 
Because everything is disgusting in my life.
Because I am human being.
I need to breathe 
I need to long sleep
To fill up my restless time
I need to see dream
I need to do something new
Because I want to be happy
Because I am human being.
I have to avoid all those things
Which Irritate me tease me all the time.
And 
I need to walk away
I need to walk away
I need to live before I die
Because I am human being.

Premium Member What About Wolfs

WHAT ABOUT WOLFS

shel silverstein: a bit childish, his giving tree my kids remember, though its parts were dismembered as it gave to the bitter end of life.

ogden nash: well, he gives us moo and milk, until the utter end, short and brief. reminds us of the soup’s - wolf.

wendy cope: born in kent in the london broil (ahem…borough) of bexley. things are going clunk and your face has too much gunk, a hoarder with thirty years of junk and especially she doth remind us don’t answer email when you're drunk.

william james collins: a hoot, billy! only child, born in manhattan, dear old dad worked on wall street. a poet laureate’s big recital on two poems about what dogs think (probably) - what about wolfs?

gershon wolf: he’s flower power-ful in his jest. for example - hippies pulled the triggers and out came flowers. though other comedic poets might create a chuckle, gershon always makes us smile.

Greek Philosopher Anaximander

Greek Philosopher Anaximander proposed that
all life began in the sea.Allah"made from water
every living thing"And We created from water 
every living thing.Darwin did not know genetics.
He also did not know about genetic mutation.
Humans and monkeys are both primates But
humans are not descended from monkeys or 
any other primate living today.Humans and 
chimps share a surprising 98.8 percent of their
DNA.How can we be so similar and yet so different?
Here is your answer in Surah Baqarah verse 66.
You are already aware of those of you who broke
the Sabbath.We said to them,“Be disgraced apes!”
Ape species include,gorillas,chimpanzees,orangutans,
gibbons,and bonobos.The source from which existing
things derive their existence is also that to which they
return at their destruction.

Dr Harold Shipman

The case report of a serial killer who worked at several hospitals as a respiratory therapist is presented.The suspect was initially labeled a benevolent Angel of Death who ended the suffering of elderly patients through mercy killing. However,his subsequently declared motive for homicide was very different from other similar cases in medical settings. The application of new analysis techniques for the detection of pancuronium bromide injection in a series of aged exhumation tissues gave positive results and led to the resultant conviction of the therapist.
Note.Dr Zafar Supari killer.

Negative Image

I have lost faith love and respect for the institutions
We should have the grit to face our negative image
I am saddened by what is happening today
Why do agencies support elite class mafia?
I am extremely disappointed by intelligence
What they are doing is condemnable
I have lost faith in Judicial System
Guardians and protectors are foes.
Gulam thay gulam hain
Supari kay gulam hain..

Precis Writing

The personal life of Sam Grover, a popular talk-show host, turns upside down when he accepts an assignment from a media tycoon.The job plunges him into 
a deadly cat-and-mouse game hiding behind a veneer of glamour, money and power.

Ahsan Hadith

I learned from Speaker Shaikh sahib's lecture that the Quran contains the recorded Sunnah(practices)of all times.The essence of the Quranic verses conveys the Sunnah of Allah,the Sunnah of all Messengers and Prophets.
These aspects are briefly mentioned in the Quranic verses.Additionally,I discovered that the most beautiful events and Hadiths(sayings and their Actions)of all the Prophets and Messengers,including the events of the Day
of Judgment,are also briefly mentioned in the Quranic verses.The Quran truly manifests these Ahsanul Hadeeths(excellent most beautiful narratives for the Guidance of Mankind).International Islamic Propagation Centre Canada.IIPC.

Pagal Pathan say dar(222).

Model Town

Model Town mein aik Wali rehta tha,
Jo Logon say kehta tha,
Chanda day do.
Zakaat day do.
Nazrana day do.
Fitrana day do.
Couplet
Qabron say kamai kar lo,
Pait haraam say bhar lo...
