We are blessed with love, duty and wisdom;
Our children’s first instructors.
Maiden, mother, and [add something here]
Each phase of our lives brings a
New birth of wisdom and knowledge

His Lonely Pen:
To Nabil

“Nabil, himself a participant in some of the scenes which he recites, took up his lonely pen to recite the truth about men and women so mercilessly persecuted and a movement so grievously traduced.”
Shoghi Effendi, The Dawn-Breakers, p. xxi

He wrote poetic prose;
descriptions of atrocities inflicted
into the flesh of lovers
who had found the immortal Beloved.

He inscribe
with pen and ink
what blood was writing on the ground.
