Blessed   

By Brother Dash

The cloak enveloped the breeze on a day made sunny by her complexion

 

A radiant kind of energy or perhaps synergy of mood and disposition

 

She possessed me Enveloped me Cradled me like an orphan babe

 

And then she caught my glance

 

I don't know why I was afraid to say that it was her essence that gave her such a presence

 

That sparked such a desire Not of flesh But of spirit

 

That longing for love She reminded me of He That blew life into She That gave birth to the We That soothes our troubled cries and I tried to avoid the eyes

 

But those eyes pierced the walls of my soul

 

She grabbed and immobilized me Gently choked my jugular and peered deeply

 

"Oh my is that the universe I see in the iris of her soul?"

 

You see it was the essence of her presence that reminded me of love

 

It was the flow of her gait

 

It was the way that she walked

 

It was the way that she talked

 

Though her lips never parted

 

She was purifying water

 

I soooooooo wanted to pray

 

Prostrate to her God That created That stated Paradise was at her feet

 

I was captive to her beauty

 

And I don't mean she was pretty

 

Convinced of my own conviction

 

She questioned my existence

 

And my ego ran for cover

 

Was it the Sun that warmed the wind that kissed my cheeks

 

Or was it the breadth of her aura A majestic, feminine kind of Je ne sais quoi

 

My soul quaked Or perhaps it ached

 

Language is an inadequate conveyor

 

She never said a word

 

Her existence spoke volumes

 

And this moment demanded a reply

 

I was bursting to ask the question

 

Struggling, bumbling, fumbling for the appropriate time

 

Hyperventalaic starts and stops to the question

 

Fear and anticipation gripping my emotion and my right index finger

 

And in the midst of this comical spasm

 

This flotsam, jetsam to and fro

 

She must have heard the words yell from my soul

 

And with the softness of a whisper and almost sweet serenade

 

She said to me simply…Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

"I'm just a Muslimah"

Glad you like gabdho. smile.gif

 

Since it's become fashionable to bash, repress and opress [well, they try] hijaabis. It's nice to see a positive poem and from a brother too. I like the way he flipped the rush of emotions that is trigered by the simple hijaab :D

 

I'm just a Muslimah. Indeed! ;)

 

Idil

Armageddon is good too. When he preforms it.
