 Echoes of the Heart: An Ode to Emotions Asif Sultan In valleys deep where shadows play, Where whispered winds in Kashmir sway, Emotions stir, both fierce and true, A symphony of hues, a kaleidoscope view. Beneath the chinar's ancient boughs, Where dreams are woven, hopes arouse, The heartstrings thrum with every beat, In tales of love and loss, they meet. Oh, how the river softly weeps, As memories in its depths, it keeps, Reflecting stories of joy and pain, In the echo of each Kashmiri refrain. The mountains stand as silent guards, Witnesses to life's shifting cards, Their peaks touch the heavens high, As emotions soar beneath the sky. In every tear, a monsoon's cry, In every smile, a sunlit sky, For here in Kashmir's mystic land, Emotions reign, both bold and grand. So let the heart's fervor unfurl, In this enchanting, Kashmiri world, For in the dance of feelings, we find, The true essence of humankind.

 Life sans life 05-01-2021 Your life, Innocent and pure As a child- That sucks the marrow Of joy from the ordinary trips of ants' tendem, Experiences ecstacy In slurping the droopy icecream,  And deems himself successful  When stone, launched off his tender hands, Clangs street-light pole- Is in 'careful' peril. The sage on stage Is whispering in ears The cacophony of motivation. Stirring you up  off your ''ordinary'' Cot,  Spelling a dream  Of an extraordinary bed. What is now left In the vale of life? "Just fear," I say "And life sans Life." ©Asif Sultan
