Pure And Distilled Water Poem by Akhtar Jawad

My thirst needs a glass of water
from the vast jug of mother earth.
Adam to the modern thinkers,
uncountable great men sipped water from the jug
added a new mineral to it.
I have no control on my heart
I don't know how it fell in love with Muhammad,
(peace be upon him) .
I love all the minerals but the mineral he added
I truly love it.
My body goes on changing.
Every new day brings a new disease for me.
Every day it needs a new mineral.
Even Angels were asked to drink the water of Adam,
and the one who refused to drink it
and said it was polluted by a man made of clay
and that he could drink only pure distilled water.
Wish the learned one would have drunk that polluted water!
He drank the pure and distilled water
and promised to teach the art of pollution,
to the sons and daughters of Adam and Eve.
But he forgot Adam and Eve had hearts
That can contract and capture the eternal beauty.
Most of us pollute the pure water
adding minerals that lead to their creator.
And what are the minerals?
Coexistence, human brotherhood, tolerance
and love above all.
I confess a few of us pollute the water with dirt,
that lead to their destroyer,
adding lust, extremism, terror, and war,
hate above all!
Keep your pure and distilled water for you
for me it's only for the external use.
I have plenty of water polluted with love,
It's in accordance with my internal needs,
let me drink it for my beautiful heart.
Let my heart beat on the pure tunes of love.
