I Watch the Sky
Jamál (Beauty), 1 ‘Alá (Loftiness), 164 B.E. – Sunday, March 2, 2008 about 5:00 PM PST

I watch the sky
I look out my living room window
and watch the sky

I watch the sunset
transforming white cloud sheep
into pink lambs.

I watch the sky
knowing that Easter is coming
and remembering Easter Sunday Services
I attended as a child.

I watch the sky
knowing Naw-Ruz is coming
and remembering the Naw-Ruz parties
I attended before my life fell apart.

I watch the sky
knowing that when my life
is back together again
the pattern won't be the same
as before.
