The Middle East's Sand
Fine, wee, untold, so beneath
Yet fly high with wind
Blankets sky, clouds, and buildings Invade human lungs and eyes!
...
Nostalgia engulfs my heart whenever I suddenly miss all those folks and loved-ones
who have long ago died before me.
Innaa Lillaahi wa Innaa Ilayhi Raajiun.
...
Her hand raised a little when she saw me
In her wan lips, something she'd like to say
Oh, how sad, her condition impedes her from speaking!
But her eyesight and hearing are fine
...
So to ease heavy thoughts in my head
Restful sleep is all that I need
The moment I lay on my bed
I abhor dreams coz it only shallows my sleep
...
An old, frail, sad world
Yearning for PEACE, LOVE, and JOY
Tired of miseries!
...
Sweet and caring words
Can no longer be heard, felt
By the dead loved ones
While alive, kicking
...
Even the night is weeping
To lessen its excruciating pain
Cry it out until your woebegone
be gone
...
As I walk straight forward,
My head keeps turning back
To glance at my companions
who walk behind sluggishly
...
No family is perfect
everyone has their defect
When there's a shortcoming
be more understanding
...
Frowning to unknown
Face smiling to renowned
Highly selective
...
