When Peace Became a Memory


By Tanvir Mostafa 

Where are our those days, where is our lost society?
What we behold right now—is it the proper system of community?
Does goodness prevail or exist in the mid of us really?
We find soundness of reason and justice only occasionally.
Many a poet says the world is the right place for love and peace,
But perhaps

UNSAID

There is so much unsaid

That I want to tell you

What I can't express to you,

I keep it safely within

I try to speak,

But I never manage to say it

You always speak Even for the words

I wish to say

What I want to express,

You understand without me saying it.

You read my silence

Just by looking into my eyes

There is

Jordan

Miss Jordan —
Are you satisfied?
Living in a world
Where hopes and efforts never collide,
Where all abide by someone else's design.
Would you simply resign?

It's peculiar how you're blind —
Self-imposed by your own mind.
Could you just stop and listen,
See how these plates glisten?
If you rest for a moment, let others see it,
Would they be happy?
Even I'd feel giddy,
Seeing

Dipping In The Jordan River

They came by the thousands before the dusk hour
to dip their quivering bodies in the Jordan River
and take on the resemblance of Christ or alike;
they were driven by faith other than curiosity:
the limping who could hardly walk, the lonely
who smiled less and the blind who lost their sight!

His miraculous and divine hand touched them, 
they

Premium MemberA Letter From Jordan

My name is Jordan. I’m now forty-three.
This letter is to tell you I’m okay
in case from church days you remember me.
I took off in my 20’s and I’d stay
in little towns where odd jobs I could find.
I was a drifter; soon enough I’d leave.
Few friends I had, so nobody would mind.
And if I died, would

Premium MemberReturn of Jordan

A boy named Jordan was an unchurched kid,
fond of red roses in the garden green,
enjoyed mischievous things he always did.
As Bible School helper he was last seen.

The local church gets a cardinal new,
with passion, of the garden he takes care,
moves around in Zucchetto of red hue,
caresses red roses abloom with flair.

He says red roses blossom

But Jesus called the children to him and said, “Let the little children
come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God
belongs to such as these.”

WHAT’S HAPPENED TO JORDAN

What’s happened to Jordan? He’s living proof
that a kid with sideways horns, pawing hoof,
saw the masses using imperfect tongues
with elbow grease, praising

At church, one summer day I met Jordan,
he was a boy quite wild and out of line;
Came back as a teen and let the Lord in,
and at eighteen was looking quite divine.

He helped out at Vacation Bible School,
and we became the very best of friends;
Jordan was calm, kind and followed each rule,
we were just

Sonnet To Jordan

SONNET TO JORDAN

If you saw Jordan as he is today
You would not recognize the boy we knew.
Back then he was a pest in every way
(He even carved his name once on a pew)
If there was mischief, he was always there.
“He’ll not amount to much,” his teachers sighed.
But yesterday, she saw him in the square,
His wife

Premium MemberWhat Happened To 'Jordan'

In the wee hours of a cool autumn night,
They were roused from sleep by a loud knock.
They feared it would be some bandits,
Trying to get into the house pulling open the lock.

To their great surprise they found their own Jordan,
Who had been mysteriously missing since years.
No news of him to the deep chagrin of his

Premium MemberWhatever Happened To Jordan

There was once a young soul I’ll call Jordan
He was a little on the wild side, a rebellious child
Most expected he’d someday know the warden
The one he’d answer to before being reconciled

Freedom, it seems, we often take it for granted
Like Jordan, I sometimes disregarded the rules
It took some time for me to grow where I

Premium MemberWhatever Happened To Jordan

Wisdom, like the endosperm of a coconut, evolved,
Jordan developed in his self-consciousness day by day;
Though vices around virtues, like the galaxy, revolved,
He, like the Magi, keenly discerned and chose the right way.

Boyishness, as the rind of an orange or plum got peeled,
Fruitfulness in him, like wheat grain formation, peeped its head;
How lovely our once naughty

His name in quotes, a mystery to all,
A mischievous kid, a bit of a stinker,
But with a golden heart that stood tall.
