Coal Poem by Akhtar Jawad

Coal

Rating: 5.0


Nature!
Don't make me so much hard.
I don't want to become diamond.
Let me remain coal.
Let someone burn me.
Let me be oxidized.
Let me be utilized
by the green plants and trees.
I know the sun will help me
to be turned in carbohydrates.
What a pleasure it would be!
I shall shall spring as flowers
and when one with garland of flowers
will face the other
with a necklace of diamonds,
the diamonds will turn deaf
before my fragrant smile.

To continue in the cycle of life rather than a dead expensive stone, surely the better choice. You said it well. Thank you sir.

The desire to become a garland of smiling flowers is a humble desire.....! Let it be a garland of 'pink' roses... your favorite color!

Sun helps coal to turn in to carbohydrates. Green plants and trees utilize this. In garland of flowers this looks so pretty while converted to diamond and placed in necklace. Flower gives fragrance. Beautifully and naturally narrated poem is shared here with much care...10
