Bismillah
To start a blessed journey through poetry
To draw dots on the i’s and cross the T’s
For God to enable us to output all that’s sweet to the ears, like bees
To create a God-driven conquest like the Golden fleece
To connect with you on a deeper level like a gypsy with a crystal ball empathizing your fears
Bismillah,
everyday and every minute as we speak
As our motivation goes bleak
As you battle your way to the peak
Comfort your heart as you offer nature a painful shriek
Bismillah,
As the Fajr brings a new hope over the crowing of the deek*
Bismillah,
As I pray to be shown my way as I seek
*Deek = Rooster in Arabic
– Ali Al-Qaisy
