'HARMONY' POEMS BY ZEENAT IQBAL HAKIMJEE, LIFES UPS AND DOWNS

LIFES UPS AND DOWNS
As the mountaineer up the mountain ascends,
Traversing the path that he will have to descend.
At the sight, an ordinary man
Would have shuddered.
Up hills and pitfalls, All a part of life.
Whether it is easy going or only strife.
Sometimes an obstacle comes in the way,
Sometimes it is smooth going all the way,
Lifes ups and downs add to its totality,
Lending to it an air of immortality.

'HARMONY' POEMS BY ZEENAT IQBAL HAKIMJEE, DEATH UNKNOWN

DEATH UNKNOWN
After death the era seems
Bleak and dreary,
Woven around it an aura of mystery.
Will I have to repent for my sins,
Or will I be classed divine.
All questions answered at the
mercy of time-
Will I be in Gods domain.
Or will me be, Satan slain,
If I knew distinctly I would
Have an upper hand.
God rules supremely over the
Law of the land.
I am afraid of the outcome of death
Will it or will it not be as I suggest
