Jasmine Weaves

So much that I could say or do
to show that I love you
I'd paint the night's sky, white and blue,
Just to brighten up your day,
I'd write a language, letters and words too
Just to express what my heart has to say,
I love you, more than the words that I speak,
I love you, more than the letters that i seek,
I love you, beyond what you could ever conceive
Coils of fragrant love, jasmines strewn into a weave
I love you, more than you would ever believe.

Miracles

I'm looking into his eyes,
the
miracle
of
birth,
the
width, of which is unsurmountable
girth, a product of where we are going and where we came,
earth, I pray and hope it blossoms, a life full of piety, and
mirth, even when lifes sadness takes its sway, I hope you still recognize its
worth, despite its transcience and spiritual
dearth, I pray you find it at last

peace, for the next miracle comes racing fast

the miracle of death

Tribute to words of wisdom gleaned from Islam (the person). We were discussing the miracle of birth, the journey of innocence into this world, and the miracle of death; the inscrutable journey, that we shall all traverse--allowing the prospect of life to cycle through generations to come, for innocence to find its way. Death is a matter of Life. Birth and Death, both thought provoking 'miracles' that enrich our sense of being and ground us back into the grips of reality.

Fragile Future

I will take you there,
I will
Hold you by your hand
Our fragile earth shakes now,
But trust in Him,
Tomorrow we will stand
What is this world,
But breaths and dust,
Rustling in the wind
And live we must.
I will take you there.
I may not know the future,
But it will sure come to know me.
