Don’t Miss Out

Posted on January 2, 2021 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

Get off your seat

Hold on very tight

Your fractured wings

And tearful soul

Meander outside

With a limping heart

A dreary story

A sack filled with pain

Wander in a meadow

Hug a weeping willow

Kiss a sleepy flower

Sway with the breeze

Flung open the gates

of your weary heart

Exhale all sorrow

Breath in the Light

Send waves of love

Up up so high

Violet and blue

Paint pink the sky

Awe struck in wonder

Bathing in splendour

Draw the world a rainbow

Up above the clouds

Watch God’s glory

Cascade like rain

Watch God’s wonder

Cascade like rain

Watch God’s love

Cascade like rain

We Teach Love, Sir

Posted on December 5, 2020 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

Only in Palestine

Two Palestinian prisoners, one has been sentenced for 21 years and his friend has been sentenced for 7 years.

The friend who has the lowest sentence and after the approval of his mother, put a request to carry an extra 7 years on behalf of his friend, and to reduce the sentence of his friend.

His request was approved and they both were released together yesterday, after 14 years in prison.

They celebrated together, along with their mothers, families and friends.

God’s Language

Posted on November 11, 2020 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

God speaks in many different ways

God speaks in light, shades, colours and rainbows

Ultraviolet, red, mauve and umber

God speaks in codes and cryptic language

Pi 𝛑 and Phi Φ, crystal clear, baffling signs

Harmonious psalms and magical numbers

Gods speaks in letters: “be”, WOW, it is

In waves, in quarks and supernovas

Infinitesimal, gigantic splendour

God speaks in images that capture your soul

Can you hear the melody of a baby’s hand

wrapped around his mama’s finger

God speaks in rhyme, sublime and tender

In the fragrance of a flower

Embracing life with joyful wonder

God speaks in roaring prose, majestic, supreme

In the pounding of the ocean

In the yowl of piercing thunder

God speaks in a voice, august superb

In the trickling of a stream

Running its course, no rest, no slumber

God speaks in hymns, enchanting serene

In the awe-inspiring DNA

and the elegance of nuclae

Gods speaks in empathic poesy

In the sorrowful tears of a doleful child

and the shimmering sparkle in his hopeful eyes

God speaks in sonnet of elation

In chants of gratitude and silent prayer

In the grace of souls, teeming of devotion

God speaks the language of brilliance

In the axioms of mathematics

In stars dancing, harmonious motion

God speaks in Divine verses

Perfection and bliss, imbued in euphoria

Infused in hearts of prophets and children

Stay still

Close your eyes, open your heart wide

Can you hear God’s throbbing whispers?

قدس الأقداس

Posted on October 4, 2020 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

عندما تتألمين تتألمين بعنف ليس كألم الناس

عندما تحبين تحبين بعنف ليس كحب الناس

عندما تفرحين تفرحين بعنف ليس كفرح الناس

قدس الأقداس أنت

باعك الأنجاس في سوق النخاسة

عجبت هل من شئ على وجه هذه الارض لم نتعلمه منك؟

حتى وأنت ثكلى مثقلة بجراحك، تعتصرين ألما

تطلين علينا من محرابك بابتسامة فاتنة

تلقيننا دروسا في الفرح والعشق والامل

كنا قد نسيناها

وي كأن الله عندما قسم الجمال اعطى عُشره للكون ووالباقي كله لك

وعندما قسّم الطهر اعطى عُشره للكون والباقي كله لك

وعندما قسّم الصبر اعطى عُشره للكون والباقي كله لك

وعندما قسّم الآلام اعطى عُشرها للكون والباقي كله لك

وعندما قسّم الافراح اعطى عُشرها للكون والباقي كله لك

وي وكأن دموعك القدسية تأبى أن تنساب إلاّ مزاميراً بنكهة الجنة

علمينا الحب يا حبيبة فإنا قد نسيناهُ

علمينا كيف نجني الفرح من صحارى الأحزان

وكيف من بذور اليأس نحصد الأملا

Stitched

Posted on September 30, 2020 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

My wounded soul is a patch work

Chopped pieces of stubborn memories

Fraying at the edges

Vivid all around

Refusing to fade away

Stitched together with a thread of love

Embroidered with hope

My soul became a piece of art

Suited for a museum

“Life On Hold” Quilt

Posted on September 30, 2020 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

This quilt is very special to me ❤️

“Life On Hold”

It took me about three weeks to make, I finished on the 19 December 2005, just the last night before the departure of my beloved husband Khaled ❤️

During my work on this quilt, Khaled was in hospital in a coma and it’s during those two agonizing weeks that quilt was embroidered

I gave it the name ‘Life on Hold’ reflecting Life in Exile for a Palestinian. Moreover, during this work my life was literally on hold, for the entire two weeks period of Khaled being in coma 💔

I started making it just days before Khaled went to hospital, he offered to help, even though he never embroidered or even stitched anything before ❤️ He did try, bless his soul ❤️ and he managed a few stitches, and that is the more reason I love and cherish this quilt.

He left me part of him in there ❤️
