Oh, my joy!

July 23, 2020

You are the struggle of everyone

But, you are a toy for a young boy

You are in the nest of sparrow

But, a lover watches you deeply in her eye

A man is waiting for you by the ocean

But, you go silently and show him only the sunset ray

I see you only in blue while being surrounded by red

But, those dark clouds come and cover that blue sky

Despite working the whole 20 hours consecutively a day

I still haven't found you, while being involved in my every try

Every morning, I start reaching you like a bird

But, you go far and keep that swift and quick fly

My all efforts depend on living by your side for life

But, you leave me alone in this wide rounded desert; why, why, and why?

I ask you give me a hint to reach and hug you for lifetime

But, you always take me off from your ship without even saying bye

I will never give up on meeting you, even when I'm an old geezer

BECAUSE, you are my prosperous life, Oh my joy!

Ibadullah Arife
