Chance favours the prepared mind!

Oh Lord
Why this anxiety?
This muscle
Not stopping to contract

This heartbeat
Endlessly jumpy
My wild dreams turned frenzy
Where is the calm?

Has our snow turned slushy?
Thought it was heaven
I courted
Now not aware

If today will be good
But with You Oh Provider
My life will be lovely!
No matter who!

PARENTS-BABY POLITICS

Born on the bed of love
You brought laughter
Your cries terrifying
Yet your embrace so soothing

Today you're olympian
A corporate globetrotter
Your beauty celebrated on plasma
Every muscle grown into career with power

So you forgot your oldies
That rocked through the nights
And cradled you from danger
You gave me the looks forgetting how I lost mine

Why this lost of love
I was Valentine before the roses
Working two jobs so you may not
Hearing racist slurs so your Canada be respectful

I wonder oh baby boy
Will you not turn to Salah
Your first ipod was Azan
Your final word will be Allah

I remain in your eyes outgrown
But you are still my life's joy
No matter you did not pay the bills
I just want you to call and be good to my grands

You refused me a chair on your dinner table
Your new controller dislikes my thoughts
It was me who celebrated your aqiqa
I remain your wellwisher without being on the mortgage

It's me big baby
Don't play politics with my love
You will sit here some day
And wonder what went wrong!
