The 2nd Eid- Baqrid Poem by s.zaynab kamoonpury
The 2nd Eid- Baqrid
This day to celebrate the supreme sacrifice
of the ancient prophet Abraham
This day to ponder and reminisce
that divine substitution of Ismail for a ram!
This Quranic and biblical factual story
shall never diminish in its age-old glory
That superb reliance on and compliance with the will of God
eternally for man to learn from and applaud.
Upon his awesome trust in the unseen, let his kind marvel
and of submission, devotion to God bestow him a laurel
And now for the sake of mutual unity and festivity
first let all of humanity
release their doves of peace
and let them fly freely, unprovoked, unrestrained
with olive branches in their beaks
such that when angels who predicted
forever feuding humans
look down they see instead
6 billion or more two fingers up
in a huge mass of humanity
signalling for and meaning to keep the peace!
But mind you, world peace is to be everybody's goal
so let no one leave space for any loop-hole.
EID GREETINGS everybody.
That is a poem that explains the beauty of the day..... such that when angels who predicted forever feuding humans look down they see instead 6 billion or more two fingers up in a huge mass of humanity signalling for and meaning to keep the peace! A message that will solve all the problems. Very nice Write. Eid Greeting Zaynub.....

Occasions poems are the most difficult type; needs exclusive talent to soar over their familiarity; Zaynub did succeed to deal with that

Zaynub Eid greetings to you too...this poem is special in the way it commemorates the Supreme sacrifice in its glory & splendor, and it's different because media especially the T.V channels usually are interested in fun-shows rather than the cause.thank you Zaynub for this write.
