The First Catch

The call of the muslim prayer wakes them At the hour of five at dawn Prayers...she thinks in every religion, all languages says the same - Good above Evil A village of houses on stilts overlooking the sea A tourist destination in north of the country A woman with her two young ladies hugging each...

What the sun said matters

The heavens opened with a smile The windchimes welcomed The gardens in bloom The squirrel blissfully happy A beautiful day A beauty you want to touch And surround And His words ring through "A metal said to the sun..Will you shine on me?
