Lord God Bless You Please, Doctor Rabbani,
I`ve SoHail`d You in Ways You`ll Never Know!

In the heart that magic touches,
a mystical spell drifts
through that soul:
to urge and drive
the hand of craft
to completeness
in the finishing
of one precious poem.

This soul cannot live
without writing,
write without living,
to inhale breaths of splendor
that moves not the physical,
but the spirit of the poet
in his creating:
Hiding but ....
symbolizing the truth of fantasy.

Moe is not just a poet, but a poet-philosopher indeed. You
show significant influences of Mirza Ghalib`s great thoughts.
I have been reading your various poems, but this one is
the best so far...please keep it up.
