Agape

Posted on August 15, 2013 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

When life becomes burdened with wickedness and cruelty,
when loss and confusion is written on every human face,
when people weep in misery and despair,

Climb up a hill or a mountain
eyes full of compassion
heart full of mercy
open your soul,
raise your hands up,
in wondrous agape
wholeheartedly
tightly
embrace

Seeds of love

Flower… flower in my heart

Fill with joy every corner of my soul

Seeds of love

August untamed

Go wild, spread wide grow tall

Seeds of love

Open the kernel of your being

Display your beauty, fierce, full of grace

Seeds of love

Pour down your music

Heavenly whispers… enchant the world

Amazing

Posted on August 9, 2013 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

Did you ever wonder

What is it that shakes your being

And makes your soul tremble

As you stand before New Life

In awe and awesome wonder

Did you ever wonder

What is it in watching New Life, that melts your heart,

Tickled with love, swathed in splendour

Did you ever wonder

What is it that makes stand there

Gobsmacked in silent thunder

As you see a child smiling

A baby kitten purring

A new leaf budding

A tiny deer climbing

A scented rose blooming

Can you smell the freshness of your soul

As you look into a babe’s eyes, with eyes open wide

Can you see yourself smiling

As you hear him giggling loud

Such is New Life

Coated with sweetness

Imbued in beauty

Wrapped in mystery

Woven into WOW-ness

Radiating tenderness

Full of grace

Always grabs you by the core, with breathtaking joy

Its colourful magic

Touches the soul of your soul

Have you ever wondered, why?

Could it be that

You have been an eyewitness

To the miracle of creation

Still unsoiled

Fresh, raw and pure

Newly delivered from the Divine Abode Above,

A precious gift of the Most Loving, Most Sublime

Detached

Posted on August 1, 2013 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

Life was raging all around me

All was surreal

I was looking at me

Madly searching for you

I knew what had happened

I felt sorry for me, I embraced

I was watching me

Sobbing… trembling

With my sore heart throbbing

I put my arms round me, and comforted

I was hearing me pleading

Begging for help

“Do not be afraid”

I whispered in my ear, and reassured

I could see me in the distance

Frozen… lost… lonely… petrified

Staring at the oblivion

I rushed towards me, held my hand

And took me home

Only love grew

Posted on July 31, 2013 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

When I was a little girl
My home was a tree-trunk
On a white cloud
Up…up… in the sky

In this world of mine
The sun shone forever
All seasons were spring
And love grew everywhere

In gardens… on trees
In the streets
On roof tops
In the rivers
In people’s hearts
And on their tongues

Visitors to my world
Wondered how
And why
Hate didn’t grow
Hate couldn’t grow

The secret was
In this world of mine
People could read
Each other’s minds
So, they came to understand

How others feel
What others mean
Why others do
And where others stand

That’s why
In this beautiful world of mine
Only love grew

Just come with me

Posted on July 24, 2013 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

I want to take you out

I want to hold your heart

In my little palm

Take you out, just for a day

Show you the world

Drifting with the breeze

Sitting on an autumn leaf

Flying with humming birds

Bouncing on clouds

Riding backs of dolphins

Diving with blue whales

Sliding on a rainbow

Painting ruby skies

I want to take you out

Show you the world

Gliding between mountains

With colourful butterflies

Surfing seas and oceans

Swimming in the Nile

Floating between galaxies

Counting night stars

Racing with twilight

Travelling throughout time

I want to take out

Show you the world

Holding on your hand

Clinging to your heart

Just come with me

Come with me

Soul Whispers

I think of You

Splendid thoughts

Buds through my soul

Sublime and beautiful

Majestic waves

of love so great

Runs through my being

Serene and graceful

Tender and pure

Princess of Dreams

Posted on July 19, 2013 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

Dedicated to the young girl I saw studying in the vicinity of Al-Agsa mosque- May, 2013

Timidly I stretch my arms out
I bow my head in humble awe

Kissing those delicate hands
Wiping sorrow off your tender eyes

O… soul of my soul
Delight us with your dreams ignore death around

No to submissiveness no to being idle

Plant seeds of hope inside of us… lilies
Baby smiles
Spectra of love
Longing poetry
Celebrations of glory… huge grins

On the cusp of homeland scatter your winning laughter
Almond Blossom … fragrant roses … heart beats … tears of love … and stars

أميرة الأحلام

Posted on July 19, 2013 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

على استحياءٍ أمد الكفوف
اطأطئ هامتي في خشوعٍ ذليل

اقبّل هذي الأيادي الرقيقة
وامسح احزان هاتيك العيون

ايا مهجة الروح
جودي بالمنى رغم المنايا
فلا للخنوع ولا للخمول

ازرعي الأمال فينا زنبقاً
أحلام طفلٍ
أطياف عشق
أنغام شوق
أعراس مجد باسمات

وعلى أعتاب الديار انثري ضحكات فوزك
زهرٍ لوز… عبق ورد… خفق قلب… دمع حبٍّ… ونجوم

Beauty all around

Posted on July 8, 2013 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

Looking around

My eyes delight

Beauty bubbles in every corner

My heart swells with love, uncontainable

Sparkles of tenderness fall down as rain

Overwhelmed with gratefulness

I kneel down and pray

Lifted up

Uplifted

Swept off my feet,

I pop, I jump, I fly

My soul fills with colour

Besotted I swirl

And sing with joy
