When we find a way - Rabia




Look at the weight of the light on the clouds and then read this - a poem by Rabia, born in Iraq, between 90 and 95.

I could not move against this wind if
I did not pray.

And all that is said of me that is untrue
would make lame my gait if I could not free myself from
the weight of others malice.

I could not move against all this light if I did not pray.

So how things become,
what a change
can happen when we find a way.
to keep Him close.
