FULL MOON!

This post is not a poem, just a voice of my heart... Please ignore any shortcomings related to poetic expression in it!
Dedicating to the Full Moon tonight!


Oh you, the brightest spot in the gloomy sky

How many mysteries in your bosom lie?

You have for countless centuries

Guided Man out of his miseries

Nature in your growth and disappearance put

The charms of its most precious assets

These secrets reached Man when

Desired the tides of Life to reach you

Who basked themselves in your Light

Got their Hearts enlightened with Love

Love made the sky gleam with Full Moon

When the clouds of confusion left the blue



Enlightening the night of your Love is your orbit

A symbol of Hope are you, oh Full Moon

All your secrets, confide in us and

Turn our motion like yours, oh Moon

We who look for the footsteps of our beloved

Teach us your way of Living, oh Moon

  3. Nice rendering and unusual thought.

    In our apparent visible world Full Moon is the loveliest, mysterious and breathtaking sight. But why it is so? I always felt it is because when first man ever set an eye on this majestic sight and was left in an awe and since then billions of eyes that have seen it with same amazement and awe have passed on enormous energy of love and ecstasy to this tantalizing object, which is surrounded by an aura of that admiring and praising eyes who look towards it and are inspired eternally…

  4. Hello Friends,

    I am rejoicing with this beautiful poetic expression and one with each of you three in the effect. Your description, as well, Dar Sahib, also add to the truth with beauty and the wealth of the heart.

    When I look at the full moon, I often think that this actual sight brings us all together - not only with our historical origins yet also here and now...

    I feel, know, am one with you on the other side of the world and you with me...

    And Allah with us all through His Spirit which contains multitudes of these same qualities you have described...

    What Grace has been given to us in the sky...
    when so much else goes awry.

    Very true,
    The way nature Unites all mankind is beautifully revealed to us by Full Moon...
    And I especially like ur words

    'I feel, know, am one with you on the other side of the world and you with me...'

    Thanks for sharing ur feelings because I believe if feelings are shared they contribute in Uniting the whole mankind under the banner of Humanity, as Human beings mostly share similar feelings. I wonder why only differences are highlighted.

    Thanks for coming and reading the post :)

Collapsing Global Political trends - Are we in need of a new political system?

  "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of light, it was the season of darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair" Charles Dickens; A Tale of two cities Capitol Hill under siege There is no better description of the current global socio-political scenario than these infamous words of Dickens.  After a year of pandemic and political incapacity to unanimously contain an emergency situation at the global center stage, the world is witnessing a dichotomy that has never been so evident before. In contrast to the Cold War era, when the world was divided into two distinct blocks with individuals from each of the block fighting and dying for their own political ideology, the current division is present deeper within the masses in respective countries. US elections 2020 revealed that this division is rampant with

قبر اور سیاست

سیاست اور قبر کا چولی دامن کا ساتھ ہے۔ کبھی سیاسی مخالفین کو قبر میں اتارا جاتا ہے (معنوی طور پر یا اشاراتی طور پر) تو کبھی نظریات قبر کا رخ اختیار کرتے ہیں۔ اور تو اور اکثر اوبیشتر یہ بھی دیکھنے میں آیا ہے کہ الیکشن مہم کے دوران جنہیں بریانی کی دیگ میں دفن کیا جاتا ہے انہیں وقت گزرنے پر بھوک اور افلاس کی کچی ٹوٹی قبر اپنے آغوش میں لے لیتی ہے۔ سیاست میں ایک اور قبر بھی موجود ہے جسے ضمیر بیچ کر یا مار کر حاصل کیا جاتا ہے۔ یہ قبر خاصی سود مند ثابت ہوتی ہے کیونکہ مثل مشہور ہے کہ سیاست میں جذبات کا عمل دخل نہیں ہوتا۔ اس لیے مردہ دلوں کی اجتماعی قبریں ایسی ہی شاندار ہیں جیسے کہ تاج محل۔ ان سب قبروں میں ایک خاص الخاص قسم اس قبر کی ہے جس میں دادا یا نانا مرحوم (یا شہید) دفن ہوں۔ ایسی قبریں احرامِ مصر کی یاد دلاتی ہیں جن کی ہیبت اور مدفن خزانے صدیوں تک پرذوق افراد کی لیے کشش اور اگلی نسلوں کے لیے باعثِ روزگار ہوتے ہیں۔ ایسے سیاست دان جنہیں یہ قبریں نصیب ہوں وہ اپنے تیر و نشتر سے ملک کے دیگر اداروں، مثلاً قانون، دفاع اور خارجہ محاذ کو چھلنی کر کے رکھ دینے کی صلاحیت رکھتے ہیں۔ اور یہ قبریں ان کی

"I can't breathe"

A giant mural in Washington DC honouring black lives At the dawn of the new millenium, we dreamt of a world with equality and justice as integral parts of its social structure. Twenty years down the lane we are now living in a world full of hatred based on race, religion, caste and creed. The United States of America, which champions itself for its human rights and is seen as the leader of the free world, saw massive, wide scale protests after the killing of George Floyd, an African American man, on 25th May 2020 by a policer officer in Minneapolis state. The police officer, named Derek Chauvin, kept his knee on the neck of a handcuffed, non-violent man for 9 minutes as Mr. Floyd wailed and begged for his life before becoming unconscious. Mr. Chauvin could be seen in a relaxed pose with hands in his pockets, as he ignored the pleas of Mr. Floyd and the bystanders who also recorded the whole incident on video. Fellow police officer Tou Thao was protecting his colleague from the crowd wh
