Sabah Al-Khair

The sky unfolded
Strewn with color
From royal red to violet
As far as the eye could see
Standing upon the beach
Waves crashing, sinking into sand
Euphoria and delight fill my heart
Such exquisite music
Feeling pure and free
A refugee before the shining sea
Garbed in white
The sun peeks at me
A blushing sphere
My one true love
I hold my arms open
And the sun rises higher
The untold verses strech before me
Etched in the morning sky
Where I see colors fading to blue
No longer shall I live in fear
Tears fall from my eyes and I murmur,
"Sabah al-khair."

Beauty Everywhere


I find beauty in the mountaintops
Where they sit in the periphery of my vision
Like cupcakes huddled together
Trying to keep warm in the chill

I find beauty in the rain forests
Where I can dance beneath the canopy
Serenaded by millions of bugs
And observed by passing panthers

I find beauty in the hearts of humanity
As people open their arms to me 
And we embrace out of love
Rejecting the shackles of hatred

I find beauty in memory
Where our beloved dead reside
Forever reminding us to smile
When we feel the tears welling

I find beauty in everything
And maybe one day everything
Will find beauty in me
As I search for home
