Unknown Season of love...

When

in the calm and lonely night

a breezing wind sings a song

of quite unknown season of love...

I do start changing

the pages of my past days

one by one...

and even more to the introversion

where in the island of memories or

such as like

once hot summer's afternoon of June

I feel warmth of your that touch

even now feeling that at this moment...

-Firdaus Khan

Oh’ Dear
I still remember those moments
when you said to me:
"your poetry is not just a poetry
but the spell of sacred book of love
learned by you at heart..."

And hence
I started thinking...that
your every word itself is like the Kalame-ilahi
which I wish to read perpetually
as like that of the Kalma...
-Firdaus Khan
