My Friends, My Faith, My Hope

My friends infuse our time spent together
As musk from a perfume seller,
Time spent in their knowledgeable company priceless,
Positive demeanor, manner, sincerity, such bliss
Mashing my cobwebs with threads of awareness
Instilling vitality instead of leaving me listless...
Its my good friends’ company that me sways,
So my hopes today are alive, whilst past are those of yesterday...

As each dissolving moment fills with duas born from sorrow,
Each today prepares for a good morrow,
Fears allayed through worried prayer,
Faith and credence peel off deep angst layer by layer…
Such effort makes my tomorrow worth living for,
Views of unveiled hope allowed entry into reality by a prayer door,
Fulfilment prepares to meet yesterday's & today's invocations…
Hope roped to this strong machine inspired by faithful conviction,
Daily repetition of these duas, hopes, desires & fervent pleas,
Exhorts Him to exhibit proof and to please!
Confirming duas ARE indeed heard by Him who Sees!
Such joyous moments implode such heartfelt glee!
Now definite belief sets in stone, awaits unveiling of those duas yet un-shown…
Coz surely they’re endorsed to reach His acceptance zone,
It’s JUST we know not the exact delivery date…
But know for sure it’s aligned with His wisdom in good fate!

This promising factor envelopes each day’s hope…
Its called faith & each day helps one cope!
By working the faith machine diligently each day,
Asking Allah for more good in each today tomorrow in every way,
Until death delivers us all one day,
to view our collection of what we had prayed,
Handing over handsome reimbursement of those duas in life we tasted not,
When at this time we’ll know that Allah had accepted,
may not have immediately delivered,
But definitely He hadn’t forgot…

On this day we’ll rejoice in glorified showers of all those undelivered duas we’d prayed
with such conviction!
So magnificent will be these reimbursements,
we’d actually hope less would’ve reached our worldly destination!
What divine inspired joy,
we’d be swimming in His glory!
Wishing more would’ve remained in His Hereafter treasury!
What a merciful Lord is He who rewards,
For just delaying delivery of His servants pleading spiritual chords…
