Fear of hunger?

Fear of hunger?

A Poem by Ouli

The sun will rise tomorrow

Before it does, I’ll need to get ready

Ready for something I’ve been weary of


See, I like to eat, it calms me down

What about those who can’t, even to survive?


Isn’t that the purpose of the month?

To hold compassion for those who have less than you


Also, aren’t you the one who yearns for Paradise?

This is one way to cross the door with the beautiful name, Rayyaan

This is one way to strive in the path of Allah


One way you’ll see the forever-crystal-clear fountain, shiny

Like the sunlit Tanganyika Lake on a late Feb afternoon


One way you can fulfill the reason you were put on this earth

To worship and please Allah.
