The Poet's Son

It's really hard to judge character And truth behind a personality As a poet, versed in man's nature Made me to comprehend him His, beyond the limit simplicity And secret pursuance of divinity Perplexed the worldly men at large And burdened wife for separation. His father's poetic genes did enter Not in language but in deeds His father's poem 'O! Darling Son' Turned into a prophecy And his mother lived for a 100 years More than a decade, he alone nursed Without complaint or hesitation Verily and verily, he's worthy of praise Ashfaque Anwar Hussain Farooqui Haveli Vijayapura, Karnataka India.
