Poems by Kahel Kashmiri:

Afghanistan | Kahel Kashmiri | 2016

My Last Summer in Afghanistan

…was hot; the rays of the sun burned so much
that I could barely work.
But is it possible not to work?

Afghanistan | Kahel Kashmiri | 2016

Mother

If only you were here,
I would kiss your feet.
I would bow before you
And kiss your face.
