10th of JuneA Poem by Arsal Abbas MirzaAn Ode to a dearI've spoken of you, wherever I go Yet of you, little I do know Such privacy is what I like , since I'd rather stay off the pike. But my heart years, for the day When I finally may; Speak of thee, oh! It would be such a wonderful day My words seem artificial Such a reality I can still see. Now, do not call me superficial; It's just me being me. Your birthday is in June, the height of sublime heat. Such magnificence appeared On that day, the 10th Since you I've met, I've been out of tune Now everywhere I fret, Wandering like a loon. If you think I had forgotten, Or perhaps my well deserved fate, I had long but begotten... But, not the beloved date! Such I must not allow by any rate... © 2023 Arsal Abbas MirzaAuthor's Note
