As reported on a T.V. Channel, British born Pakistani boxer Mr. Amir Khan, who won in July 2011 world boxing light welterweight championship title at LAS VEGAS, by defeating Zab Judah, has been honoured by President Barack Obama with a dinner at White House, which was also attended by the Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton and many other specially invited Muslim sportsmen.
Here in Pakistan, we are still awaiting decision from the government on a suggestion (Link:- https://www.snayyar.com/pride-of-performance-for-amir-khan-world-boxing-light-welterweight-champion.html), for awarding Pride of Performance to Mr. Amir Khan who brought so much joy, happiness and pride to the Pakistanis in particular and Muslims all over the world, by lifting world boxing light welterweight championship title, while specially wearing green and white Pakistani national colour.
Come on Mr. Asif Ali Zardari and Syed Yousaf Raza Gilani act quickly, lest you may miss this golden opportunity to act according to the wishes of the billions of Muslims world over and win their hearts.
“No Name” & “Withdrawal” – Two Poems Of Prof. Shaheena Asif From Her Book “The Ordinary Woman”
NO NAME
Daughter
Sister
Wife
She has no name
She has no face
She is a woman
WITHDRAWAL
Laughter
Innocence
Trusting loving heart
Lost in the
Eddies of life
Frightened
I hide from
This world
As Long As – A Poem By Prof. Shaheena Asif From Her Book “The Ordinary Woman”
“As Long As”
What I wear
You don’t care
Talking to me
But looking
At the car key
Tired too busy
Business dinners
Late nights
Where you go
I need not know
Too long to be mine
The black hair
On your shoulder shines
The lipstick shade
Though light
On your collar so bright
On your body
A strange perfume for days
Lingers on in many ways
I shall ignore this
And much more
As long as
You are kind to the children
And pretend to like me
On Hysterectomy – A Poem By Prof. Shaheena Asif From Her Book “The Ordinary Woman”
“ON HYSTERECTOMY”
Like dried branches
Like earth hard and cracked
Like grass turned brown
Lifeless but alive
Scared for life
Pretending smiling
Exhausted insecure
Secretly terrified
Dear womb
The surgeons knife
Cured the disease
But
Left me dying inside
Love – A Poem By Prof. Shaheena Asif From Her Book “The Ordinary Woman”
LOVE ?
Who will love me?
When I am –
Beautiful and dutiful
Joking and laughing
Healthy and wealthy
Kind and helpful
Just any body and everybody
Who will love me?
When I am –
Sad and bad
Demanding and commanding
Lazy and crazy
Fat and ugly
Unwell and poor
Just no body and nobody
