Our Cherished Goals

By:  Dr. Maqsood Jafri

Every country is my country and my abode.

I belong to all nations marching on Love road.

People arrogantly sit on the pinnacles of pride.

Then head long fall in the ditches with out guide.

The virus of hate breeds in the breasts of beasts.

Love is the only panacea of all human ailments.

The swindlers are found in the clocks of the priests.

Their fake flowers are with out savor and scents.

The sound foundations can not be shaken by winds.

Be a rock and stand before the tumultuous waves.

The kernel can not be saved with out hard rinds.

The lions and foxes safely live in dens and caves.

The cowards die before death with out manly grace.

The brave lives even after crossing the line of death.

No honor and credibility can be found in a mean race.

These fools lack divine wisdom and are short of breath.

Life is a mind set that reflects our inner cherished goal.

Sans wisdom we are dragged by dabbing dreadful drill.

Every one is an actor and determined to play his role.

We have to mount the ridges and reach the dreamy hill.
