A Man And A Bird (Final Part) Poem by Akhtar Jawad

A Man And A Bird (Final Part)

Rating: 5.0


A very hot morning I'm waiting for her
Having fulfilled my promise of a nest.
Here comes a couple of dove to love
Drink water, enjoy love, and at rest.
Recollect one has promised it somewhere.
Where? Did the bird know, for her it's here?

But if I can manage it for a bird in my house,
One can manage it for me at another sphere
Imagine how happily I shall take my spouse
To drink immortality to love somewhere.
I'm a bird for me something has been promised
Believe, and sure the promise will be fulfilled.

Made the bird happy and the bird made me firm.
That's how a man is guided in a wave of pessimism,
I get up now with the wings of love and friendship,
Welcome, welcome my dreams and my optimism!
Don't mind who is sitting on the other side of window
It's a temple, a church, a mosque, for me a meadow.

(Samuel Taylor Coleridge is my favorite poet, his poem "Rimes of The Ancient Mariner" inspired me to write this poem. I am thankful to the dove who really exists and I believe she is sent by God in the verandah outside the windows of my bed room.)
