Keffiyeh Poems | Examples


Ecstasy

ECSTASY

 O morning breeze of West and South Asia

 Let my soul sip sherbet
 From your breasts like lily of the Incas 

 Nightingale of the night,
 The aroma of your voice,
 So sweet and soothing as the Messiah's breath
 Is the seven goddesses of Hellenistic World's melody

 And your sable tresses , 
 Full of Flowers of Taif
 Whose fragrance,
 Is the royal perfume of the Pharaohs
 Lull my inner sorrows to repose

 Mi orgullo and drighten of my soul ,
 In the sea of grief - I crave for solace from you - please do not forsake me !

 Here's a keffiyeh - here's a thobe or kandura
 Wear them!
Your curvy body I yearn to see 

 Into your heart's prison, 
 I am girded - Please keep me from the world of separation

 With your love,
 Neither world nor family is needed
 For to your soul I am entangled in saecula saeculorum.

Green Turbaned Man

In the semi-arid suburb, Medina,
A high pitch of sound echoed.
It dopplered through misty shrubs.

A helical dawn goes tidally.
The Pathfinder: stepped,
deep nodded, starry-eyed,
Scarfed fragrant keffiyeh.

Reeled a full throttle of forgiven,
Headed to his students.
The teaching of liberty,
Primed course of life.
