Tajalla Qureshi’s couple of poems


An Eager “Effulgence”

 

Among the stars, she receives radiance 

Encouraging like the moon, she emits endurance 

Between the yellow lines, she shreds the blooms

Above white mountains, she heavenly grooms

 

Between the twilight, a firefly swings and sparks

Glance at sweet murmurs like a starch, she marks

Nevertheless, over the garden, she fabricates

Transparency tunes, tenders tranquil, and invades

 

Wonders in wandering falcons, she eagerly feels 

Over the stream of lavenders, she gigantically seals

Reckon, the compassion, she phantasmagoric

Ineffable eyes, matchless miles, she sips the lyric

 

Yet, miraculous mirth sensibly poses and pricks

Once the heart wheels, she blindly bows the sticks

Her clout clinches, her awe wrenches the mate

Nor a delusion, she spin-off the allusions in rate.

A bounded “Silence"

 

When silence settles, like a shroud

The shallowest thoughts surface, unbound

Like buried treasure in a dark ocean deep

A heavy weight upon the vulnerable chest

 

It pierces like poison needles, sharp and cold

Innocence slips away, as painful tears unfold

I cease arguing with life's cruel design

Enduring the unbearable, heart-bleeding in time

 

Cuts on the heart, like gashes, wide and red

Red blood drips, silence and stillness spread

Lips sealed, as if a dead spirit's kiss

A dreadful lesson in muted, voiceless bliss

 

Head to toe, bloodshed, frozen in pain

Words encapsulated, like acid rain

Swollen eyes, frozen, unable to see

A winter's night, devoid of warmth, or glee

 

No courage left, in hands, eyes, or feet

Broken heartbeats, no pulse to repeat

A barren land, once fertile and green

Now lies desolate, shattered, and unseen.
