Cosmic Breakdown

By Akhtar Purvez

 From the other side of the milky way,
A star brakes apart.
Drifting through the eternal abyss.
The passage cold, detached and dark.
What made it to seperate?
Many light years since-
the wandering continues.
Is there a home?
How long will the fire last?

Purple Horizons
By Akhtar Purvez
Crickets, beatles and wasps
a composition in my backyard.
Nature- flowing through.
Creeping smoothly under the skin
and slowly tickling the heart.
For those tranquil moments,
everything else is irrelevent.
Hold the nature in your palm.
And it whispers you a lullaby
and smoothens out the creases on your soul.

The Maze Crawl
By Akhtar Purvez
The razzle dazzle sun
And calm, serene moon.
Figure out the beauty of the eternal charm.
Dive into the tranquility of
the words unspoken.
Join in an eternal bliss.
Feel the warmth of a moonlit night
And soothing coolness of a clear, sunny day.

Daylight Dream
By Akhtar Purvez

 In a rockgarden
on a simmering, hot day.
Dazzling dew drops on the lilac petals
and nectar from the jasmine.
Offered to a roaming bumble bee.
It feasts, forgets.
The lingering sweetness stays 
close to my heart.
Brightness for a dark, gloomy soul.
