Blessed With Strength Within
By: Ibtasem Poetry
بَرَكة
i am blessed with
the mountain’s solidity
and the lilie’s softness,
the lightning’s strength
and the tranquil sea’s sabr.
I am blessed with
the moon’s noor
and the forest’s modesty,
the desert’s silence
and the rain’s rahma.
i am blessed.
to have been made
of only a handful clay
and yet –
possess
all of His creation’s strengths.
