Huda - A Storm That Brought A Wintry Day Poem by MOHAMMAD SKATI

Huda, a storm and and a pretty name, Came carrying all kinds of headaches... I Just knew that it came in the form of A pretty and passing storm to us... Snow fell heavily over all our lands Including pretty and lovely hailstones Over the pretty city of Alexandria Making the city somewhat whitish in In a rare and pretty sight today... Rains fell heavily and cold winds Started happening here and there... Some poor people got stricken badly In their houses or tents here and there... Snow is wonderful, but the storm is Greatly bad and ugly in itself..... A wintry day came to us through that Huda to tell us that life has changed Very considerably in all directions... ______________________________________________________________________
