December Poetry 2017 ~ Colours ~ By Mir Abdullah





there are many colors
I'm going to tell about
some colors
the first color is orange
it has four blocks
the next color is blue
it also has four blocks
the next color is brown 
it has four blocks  
the next color is black
it has four pieces
the next color is dark green
it has four pieces
the next color is yellow
it has four pieces
the next color is pink
it has six pieces
the next color is light green
it has ten pieces
the next color is red
it has 11 pieces
the last color is off white
it has 20 pieces
and that is all about the color
blocks and pieces

For POETS UNITED Midweek Motif ~ Celebrate ~ Think Stop, Think ~

in cold, grief  snow bound encapsulated
crushed fallen swept foliage separated
branches heaving moaning  sighing
I , like the brave trunk stiff but

December last days,ending or drifting
to  new beginnings, dreary evenings
what is to be celebrated, one is thinking
it is a time of gathering and blessing…

bloodshed blasts ,death blows through
North East North West North South North
does not stop- by benumbing weather
death knows not barbed wire or border

why celebrate the coming of Peace when
peace is not belief,when straff and strife
is here there and everywhere, then, do
do we really love or care for human life “?

Celebrate with joy in white and red
white is a shroud and blood is red
spirits rise, bodies lie, darkened sky
players play with arms’ held high-

I seek Peace and Holy Peace will come!
we pray and decorate honor and wait’
‘O People do not stop to Celebrate’ the
Gift of Life, let the Bells Ring, anticipate

bury the hate for black or white
world is a rainbow ‘ day or night
think stop think no one is winning’
Hark, I feel, Someone Blessed is Coming’

Know now the reason the time, not, is late’
Time to Be Happy Time to Celebrate , Celebrate
