Healing.

Quaid-Uz-Zaman 1954 (Jamalpur)



Even a promised cloud
driven by strong wind
and far away from high mountain
know not the course of its journey .

The sea calm and gentle pay heed
to no whims.
It roars to itself
with a punctured thought.
Then prediction
an unworthy and  always suspended
as time speaks accordingly
in order of merit.
