My Books

Within the sanctuary of my dwelling La Grace, A kaleidoscope of knowledge finds its space, Books, a constellation of bound dreams, Unfolding worlds through vibrant streams.

Literary treasures, a mosaic so grand, Philosophies woven like grains of sand, Religions' stories, an intricate weave, A quilt of beliefs, in pages they heave.

Artists, sculptors, and painters renowned, Their tales whispered in pages unbound, Ink unveils their passions, colors unfold, Their legacies painted in words, so bold.

Sociology's tapestry, people's interplay, Psychology's labyrinth, minds at bay, Medicinal magic in scientific scrolls, Books, is a universe where wisdom tolls.

Languages' symphony, a babel of tongues, Political musings in ink-stained lungs, Derrida and Foucault’s thoughts intertwine, Habermas's ideas, sparks spirit divine.

Shakespeare, Milton and Chaucer's grace, Rumi's verses, love’s mystical chase, Sams, Hafiz and Mansoor's embrace, In words, and in spirits their souls interlace.

Gandhi's resilience and Sardar's might, Tagore's melodies and Nehru's insight, Pinter's drama and Ionesco's whims, Beckett's enigma where words set free.

Marx’s and Lenin’s, ideologies soar, Khushrau, Ghalib and Mir's lyrical lore, Shakeel and Shahir’s, voices of fire, Inscribed in pages, their desires aspire.

Vedas, Quran, Bibles, Granth Sahib divine, Guiding lights in the passage of time, Culinary secrets, flavour one’s bloom, Costumes in pages, a vibrant plume.

My dwelling a sanctuary, a heaven of thought, Where pages whisper what humankind sought, A symphony of words, a dance of the mind, In the tapestry of books, wisdom we find.
