The Beauty Of It Wedding Poem — drageda This poem was inspired by two lines in a movie well known to most of you, "Bridges Over Madison County". First there is the powerful emotion of Meryl Streep's character asking, "I wonder if anyone can see the beauty of it", and then the best line, "I'll only say this once. I've never said it before. This kind of certainty comes but just once in a lifetime", by Clint Eastwood's character. This is more than love, it is a deep unexplainable connection, a true gift: "This kind of certainty".

Urdu Nazm An Introduction — Syed Rizvi The ghazal in Urdu represents the most popular form of subjective poetry, while the nazm exemplifies the objective kind, often reserved for narrative, descriptive, didactic or satirical purposes. Under the broad head of the nazm we may also include the classical forms of poems known by specific names such as masnavi (a long narrative poem in rhyming couplets on any theme: romantic, religious, or didactic), marsia (an elegy traditionally meant to commemorate the martyrdom of Hazrat Imam Hussain and his comrades of the Karbala fame), or qasida (a panegyric written in praise of a king or a nobleman), for all these poems have a single presiding subject, logically developed and concluded. However, these poetic species have an old world aura about their subject and style, and are different from the modern nazm, supposed to have come into vogue in the later part of the nineteenth century. |
