Koukash Review

aubade of remembrance

Jenna Hamed

Rising with morning only
good tidings sun
opening as a
shyly blooming lily scented
so sweetly, whispering
whirls to whining sounds
of idhkar asaba7,
train rocking me
in fluid motions of
back & forth

لا إله إلا هو هو هو هو هو هو هو هو هو
blessings of my day start here

هو هو هو هو هو هو هو هو هو
stand clear of the closing doors.
