My wooden shack in the sand

Feel the raising flood play with you

In the storm's trance chant and ascend

I'm a seagull's cry and a river too

Heavy sky that I am

Shall soon be one

With the sea

Sea bird's wing glistens stark

Heaven's dance in the tides

Sky's heart that bears

My blood's mark

Rain's craving soul is calling

For me

 

When all the towers shall have tumbled

My wooden shack shall stand its ground

For love's and dreams' sake that it harboured

With joy and tears it shall abound

Conqueror's assault it frustrated

And time itself

Despared of it

But sky found a friend in it

And the floods an ever-patient lover

Whose faithfulness matches their own

Sea found in it a retreat

And my spirit a teacher

That humbles human pride and wit

You are so very wise, I see that in your soul lies a deep understanding of the necessity that nature plays in the human condition. If you are not in tune with all that surrounds you your soul will never be at peace. You understand this. Blessings to you my friend. ~Z~

A beautiful, spiritual writing, Muhammad, combining soul with sea, sky, rain, humility and dreams, and creating a lasting, eternal haven for the author's well-being.

These lines spoke to me, of reverence and respect, of life and desires, and death of human flesh. It also speaks of birth, the author's birth, which was duly and faithfully recorded by celestial awareness, and compassion.

"Sea bird's wing glistens stark
Heaven's dance in the tides
Sky's heart that bears
My blood's mark"

It is a soothingly turbulent piece, an integration of self with soul.
