Life Poem by Matloob Bokhari

LIFE
I was sitting on a seat of a stone in a valley
Listening the sweet music of life in green hills
And reading verses on love, peace and beauty
I was in perfect bliss in the company of beauty
Seamless harmony of the pleasing scenes soothed my soul
Worries of life disappeared in the flowing water of stream
I tried to undo web of life and death, weaved so secretly
Life which comes in cries, grows in worries, ends in cries
The lesson taught me by sunlight, mountain lines, air and rain is:
'Better is to dance with lilies, play with breeze, sing with shepherds
Better is to listen the words of God instead fighting God's wars
In temples in mosques, in churches, and in synagogues.'
