I being a new reader of  book "TWIST OF FATES" wants to say something about the book and the respected writer "Mr.Afzal Shauq".

 

T he book "Twist of Fates" as the name suggest is all about "the twist "which when happen in ones life , completely changes the life and also all the aspects of it ..... I mean,

 

"Two drops of water, one falls in ocean inside a unio and becomes pearl and another  fells in a dirty drain and loses its identity " , It's just a play of fate that, in one moment from a sky a person can fall to ground .

 

Fate or destiny is something which cant be defined, every person ha different perceptions and thoughts about Destiny or Fate.

 

According to William Jennings Bryan ,

“ Destiny is not a matter of chance, it’s a matter of choice ; its not a thing to be waited for, it’s a thing to be achieved”

Well, every person has different thoughts and perception, so its very difficult  to explain and give such a definition of “DESTINY “which can satisfy each and every person.

 

In “Twist of Fates” each and every aspect of life is included and defined beautifully with very different approaching way. Mr. Afzal Shauq is seemed to be the poet who experienced all the events he explained in his book.

 

I being a reader of this book can very well say that “this book is full of all emotions and wonders of life “it has all the surprising facts of life, like “TERRORISM, ALARMING THREAT, HEART CATCHY EMOTIONS , LOVE IN MORNFUL WAY, DISGUSTING BEHAHIORS OF HUMNA RACE, BRUTALITY and many more parts of life.

 

Afzal Shauq has beautifully described the realities of life and twisting of fate in life.

 

For instance, In his one of poems "Broken Branches "he has well explained the pain and sufferings of a worker and inhumane way of labor to earn his daily meal for survival. He made a sketch in his impressive words realizing the readers with a questions that “how  a poor labor struggles for his life every minute?" , “how is he exploited by masters and how he pays his blood and sweat to overcome it  and even how things like terrorism and anarchy is affecting lives of innocent people?

 

In the poem “ In the Name of God” the poet Afzal shauq  nullified the misinterpreted tradition of fight in the name of holly God, while he tried to make the readers sensitized regarding the human beings senseless behavior in the poem “ Senseless walls”  and  there are many poems like “For ever hiding”, “War for the sake of God”, “Hidden face” “ Walking Dead” , “Ladies of the red soil”, “In the name of dignity”, “Criminal” and “Murder” he discussed the realities of the today’s life and also condemned the in humane acts with strong words and mentioned that ….” humanity is some thing dealing with peace and love”. Means, he considered the “love” as a “best source of peace and prosperity”.

 

I being a reader as well as fan of his book really appreciate him and his extra ordinary talent ,,,,,,,,and also wish that He may get much more fame being an excellent poet and to get name in higher rank of world fame poets ......GOD BLESS HIM !

 

In last, I being his fan am  dedicating one of my poems “ Love n Affection” to him.......

 

" Lots of days

and even nights passed ,

I never had a  smile on my face ,

and how could I smile ?

while

feeling the violence around me,

growing with full pace and passion

and …

I’m sitting alone and feeling blue ....

thinking of him,

with my eyes full of dew.....

In the dark swampy night ,

But suddenly

and un expectedly,

he stepped towards me ,

I become scared

and started shivering

who is he ! as I shouted with fair,

He smiled and added

" don’t be afraid …

it’s me ”

but whom?

As I asked, he advanced ..

and wrapped his both hands around me ,

Yeah.. he with his twinkling eyes

and sparkling face ,

looked into my dewy eyes ,

with an enchanting smile ,

held my hand

and bent on knees ........

" I’ m the HUMANITY,

LOVE , PEACE

and AFFECTION", He said ,

" I’ m born again

" and I’ m back again" ….

Hearing the sweet voice,

My eyes filled with joy

and tears stared rolling my cheeks

and I thought ….

"Oh my GOD !

would the glory, peace and humanity

ever replace ....

the brutality in human world?

Yes angels are always there

to guide the

detract human kind, he added..
