See those paper? Those remnants of prayers
They were pulled from my shelf,
Torn from off the Golden Book I cherish.
They swirls and circling over my home ablaze.
I see you attempt to cease its dance
Running to capture that relic
Of my sacred loyalty.
Mad with frenzy anger
Your face distorted with heat.
They are not just paper, you see
Nor are they merely relics that
Emblem my undying identity
When this life you take from me,
When every atom in me dispersed as I perish
You will forever more breathe the particles of my immortal faith.
So, these words I pronounce to you,
To shake every cell in you and to remind you:
“Remember, I am a Baha'i!"
"Every atom in me are thus named! ”

wings unleashed
Come fly! come fly with me!
Come join frolic into the free space with me,
and feel the wind rushing through your face
Come now! and stop calling me!
Come! ere the dusk fall and stars be my company
I sing and call for you to take flight,
taste the joy of flying with me.
Why are you still calling?
Why not spread your wings? you have not?
Then it is all too right for me to indulge,
for your share as well
in soaring through the open field.

lasted night
I look at the night sky, find none but Moon and Jupiter
in search for that whisper haunting me,
from eternity it derive
to eternity linger,
"Now is never here to stay," it seem to say
"It flees to every next moment"
"I know!"said I, with feeble reply
"I know now."

630720000 seconds
20 years=240 months=7300days=175200 hours=10512000 minutes=630720000 seconds.
I don't use the word "soul"
just like "love", both vastly over used
the word "passion" means but shame
of a mortals like me could easily commence
sometimes after 20 years, perhaps
I'll gain words to venture the land of poems
but as of now words flee
for shelters away from ambiguity
they too, are fear of the infidels
who fiddle the reign of His mighty cause,
and claim all their callings righteous.
perhaps a word a day shall suffice it
to gain my words in 20 years.

to sleep
Words vanished,
Thoughts escaped,
I dare another notion
will challenge my resting bed.
All asleep now, as I lay
my solitary in dreams to find
free from this cage in which I reside

All it takes is one
one drop that instigate sudden shower
one gust of wind that brought
one ghost of cloud that draw
one wave of downpour
All it really took is one.
one gesture of contempt that spread into
one vicious comment
one let out trivial anger
one err unwittingly occurred
that drew hundreds of others
All it takes is one
one word refrained from oppose
one mouth silenced from telling wrongs of others
one thought led to random kindness
one step back from rising conflict
one hands down from adding violence.
All it really, really takes is ONE.

I promise, you will only cross my mind in Summer.
You didn't hear this from me,
but the breeze that first touch your face
when you set foot on this land
said it's sad to see you leave
While the torching ray accompany
your journey home
The moon and all her
starry friends at night
will hide away in your sky
the wind can't reach as far as tide
to bid you a distant good-bye,
And I promise, this much I can,
Only in Summer will you cross my mind.
