In celebration of 'You'

( For Justice A.H.M.D Nawaz)

On some days you are  heavy heartened ,

when you capture the wrong , the wrong doing

your world is delicate

soft like a baby’s breath

tender chuckles spilled

and giggles that transforms in to magic,

dancing fairies , Carolinas and Ceasers

wrapped in principles and judgements

even  the words orphaned

wisdom and many realities .

I know you

in a little less years

but then ,

I don’t know what you’ve done,

I don’t know what you have seen,

You have walked the grass , the stone ,  the stream and everything else

I have walked the soil too , in other feet

You have heard the crickets sing , the chirps  and cackles

but different from  mine.

You come in color and picture

earthed and woven in thread

stitched between line and space

in my notebook

like a heroic cosmopolitan

a mentor

a comrade.

I wish

I could leap into your heart

and see the bruise and healed,

grasshopper memories,

the strangers and spare dreams

of big heartedness and leniency.

 *Justice A.H.M.D Nawaz , the former Deputy Solicitor General , now a Judge in Court of Appeal , a wonderful  teacher and everything.
