Should we be throttled fast?

M. Mizanur Rahman

Our air is overwhelmed with poisonous smokes

of carbon dioxides.

Reconditioned cars or trucks often jam our roads!

Down from the downtrodden on their heels

our aristocrats in cars do look up!

Roads are not so wide, narrow lanes and bi-lanes

can hardly accommodate so many cars and trucks!

We all along are taking dioxides

in breath on our gulp!

When one dies, who cares to discern the person

affected on and on?

Those creative hands vanish in the air in death

poisoned by virulent gases through the breath?

Nobody knows how stealthily forever s/he is gone!

Wave in the sea

Md Maiz Uddin

Wave plays in the sea with a pleasure

Running one after another with competition to measure,

Who is but making waves and why?

Gentle breeze becomes oozy

And restless duty done to thy.

Glittering waves pla ys a vital role

To make one husty and enroll

His punctuality, sincerity, integrity.

If thou art to idle killer of time

Fortune declares of movement thine

Lay beyond uphold and bold

Aquatic beings struggling for survival

Though not removed from a whale

Teaches one to be cautious and punctual

Found in the surface of the sea, vessels

Are trembling with fear, endeavour and dear one

Can assist her just to carry to the shore

As human being can drag out a wounded personality

To the human civilisation

Without any hesitation

gust to receive in one's core.

Birds charping in the sky ov'r the sea

Remember all activities done by thee,

Drowing sun tells us active to be.

Moonlight

Nazeefa Tasnia Huda

The light of the moon

falls on our tiled roof in the town.

It falls on everyone

lighting everything down.

We do not find the sun at night

but it is the cold moonlight,

and stars that keep away the dark.

The earth becomes a lighted park.
