21 CENTURY

Tears of love at a leisurely pace

day and night dribs from my eyes

Grin of sorrow make full my lips

On every nightfall and daybreak

Unnatural happenings of yesterday

Makes my pacific mind a roaring beast

Anticipation of Today makes me impatient

I told my heart, to beat loud and loud

Confusion feeds like a savage inside,

Never knowing that tomorrow will bring standing here

Leaving nothing considered worthy remains
Destined to walk through life less ordinary
Alone, exiled, different and disdain

The love of world gaunt into the flood of tears

Greenish shoots blazing on draught of war

Burning stomachs lying in the streets

A mild joy and sorrow of my tears

Makes my heart and mind fill with woe

I told my tears to laugh and laugh

Hear draught of war from every corner

I remember story of an idiot mouse

Like an idiot mouse excitement filled me with fear

Nothing happened more than nothing happened

Realizing becoming a mouse with an idiot look

I chuckled looking at idiot world - Idiots all

THE WONDERFUL WORD OF MOHAMMED GHOUSE KHAN

Azad's poems offers me or feels me a magic change of pace and a mastery of pleasure and tragic. Whether sad or glad, each poem shows his deep affection of love to the world and the people. In all poems with a simple, direct and engaging manner, Azad tells tears of love and empathy to the world not for it barbarity but for its helplessness. Some are funny, like 'Quarrel Night' ...You really hit two birds with one giant stone" these are words on mixures of comic and real life. Each poem reflects his dalily life and filled with challenges and yet met with blood, sweat and engaging humour. some of them lacking faith and hope .The " Lampost still shining' , worthy with its delightful words but lacking of hope. All the peotic reminiscences are incomparable reding infused with poets implicit love.

Preface by Shoukath Ali.

"Last Night Before I went to Bed

Thoughts of Mother filled my head

Though I have not cried this may in many yearsOnto my pillow fell six silent tears

In this poem Azad tells us of tears of love to all Mothers. Only mothers tears really only fall like lazer sharp,

We can strengthen our continuing fight against war, communal riots, terrorism, poverty and our efforts to desperate needs' the poet tried to convey this message in the poem "MAGIC GLASS" .whose scarf floating in water, and whose blood redden the soil". The poet tried to expose the cruelty of the evil communal riot in Gujarat. Society is something of a catch-all phrase for organized humanity. It's just another word for people. And just as there can be evil in people, there can also be evil in society. And evil, in any of its myriad guises, can only bring us pain and sadnesshough this world was simple ,it was also complex in its beauties and its sorrows symbolize the loneliness of individuals,and seek to unite with others,but falls sometimes. As a poet, Azad writing on many of the subjects, susequesntly politics and are real life experience. The poet tried to write of many things that tells the truth most ae afraid and Silent.

The poem 'Silent Tears' is a profound impression of life.It has an underlying meaning to it and that interpreting it required much more than mere one reading.Poet tells us of a small girl child who was brutally shot dead in riots or war.Poet symbolize the brutality of a riots was war.The poet tried to say the same thing in the poem 'Narmada-A glory girdle'-That's about communal riot in held in Gujarat.'Narmada' flowing blandly,glittering its tears in the evil of darkness;very powerful lines,water and whose blood redden the soil" The .His poems, however,though interesting from other of view than the poetical,never rises much above mediocrity.Outsider,hiding someone behind the door,The imbecile animal are not much poetical.

From all point of view if we read his poems we can say that his poems are not vague but some worthy for the community and the generation.
