REVERIES

Qurrat Al Ain


Notice of absence from Qurrat Al Ain
I'm taking a break for a while, for no specific reason. Maybe because, I don't get as much inspirations as I used to.

Why do we have minds,

So creative and talented?

To break the shackles of the present,

Travel back and forth in time.

 

Oh, how pleasant it is,

To see a garden in a classroom,

The ocean in the bedroom,

To be the princess of our ballroom,

Aren't imaginary people better?

 

The sun is smiling at me, 

The moon tells me what the sun did for him,

The stars keep nodding to my stories,

See there! The 100 hundred colors of the rainbow.

 

What a talent it is,

For souls to wander,

In their minds,

With eyes open wide.

 

When reality makes it harder,

Let your mind wander,

And conquer your reveries.

      "Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them."

      Beautiful poem, Ain. Should that be Ain Soph Aur?!

      • Qurrat Al Ain

        Beautiful words, those are. No, no, they are in Arabic - meaning: a pleasure to the eyes.

        • Mutley Ravishes

          Thanks!

          Beautiful poem. When the world outside becomes hostile and uncaring, the imagination can create an alternative. I very much enjoyed reading you. You have got a great imagination.

          • Qurrat Al Ain

            Glad that you enjoyed. Thank you.
