Wonders

Nawal Ahmed 2004 (Karachi)

Opening my eyes
Mesmerised by sights
Who makes the sun rise?
How do birds take flight?
How a small little seed becomes a tree of height?
I often do wonder at night,
How the stars shine so bright
Who made the darkness to be the absence of light?
But there is someone out there
Whose wight is right.

About this poem

I was sitting by the gallery and looking at the amazing things God has created and that’s when I started to write this piece. It is about how we look at things and wonder so much about them and look for answers in this universe. I found the answer to my wonders have you?
