Generous Assistance............... Poem by Shakil Ahmed Ismail Tambey

You have turned hell
Into heaven -

My troubles -
Of serious nature and degree -
Gradually dissolved and evaporated
As I began understanding
The gravity
Depth,
And the profound implications
O your magnificent generosity to me -

Armed with your great generosity,
I confidently sailed the beleaguered boat
Of my world
Into the storm
And safely completed my day's journey.

What was this magnificent generosity
From you
That so enabled me?

A smile!
