Desert Rose!A Poem by Nayyab Younas KhanDesert rose is a symbolic poem, of an observer to the world. It is depicting how life is in its fantasizing way.There is some harshness to this world of mine Or maybe some barrenness is left behind Is there a way to know if one has ever been right? When all you hear is chaos and the winds are tight This rose has whorls, a rare beauty and is liked by many She waits for the rain in heart, they think she likes it sunny Oh they think, think about things a lot, Things they will have and the ones they have lost What they have right now they seem to forgot The rose looks up to the sky and wonders when will He hear The rain will come down for her and wholeheartedly she'll cheer She keeps looking up to the changing patterns of the sky Some making her feel down and deep others lifting her high Many cross her in the vastness of the desert, they have story of their own But those who appreciate little things, to her their happiness is shown Those who live only for this world, feel a little empty and hollow And those who find it temporary have better things to follow She keeps on wondering, if she were a human it must have felt great But she doesn't know pain demands to be felt and the human faces it straight Then at times she realizes, there is no point in fighting Things are not as bad, can be accepted, for a new enlightening Meanwhile she feel some drops and looks up, drops of rain fell on her She rejoices, becomes more alive then ever and nothing seems blur
