The City

The vision may be blurry,

The heart may be unsure,

The mind may fight - and worry,

And fears may loudly roar.

But peace will gently ease,

And hope will slowly grow—

I pray, as blessed as these

Daughters in your Meadow..

Oh, since I mention greenery,
You mentioned Humbling Hills;

To mind comes luscious scenery
..
That sends down more than chills.

Think highs and lows, and dewy

Fresh mist, and rain year-round,
Allowing soil for gooey,
Soft mud to jump in—sound.

My answer may be early;

My heart leapt when I read—

No time to waste on silLy
Doubts, nor on earthly dread.

As long before your word

My mind had gone and picked

The One - in here - referred,

Scaffolded, planned, then bricked.

We may not have al-Abyad,

Like sine-waves, though, we’ll visit. Instead, I figure we trod..
A stroll down Leith… or is it?

A reference to a poem...
Foreshadow from ago—

A fitting Name.. to show ‘em

You’re لي in night, and ضو.




I have retrieved the recording of the Poem, and will be posting it soon after retranscription, God Willing.




I have 2 letters for you, to be handed in person preferably. Or not, if not preferred. They are sealed and I have forgotten all of what they might say but the Gist : the 1st is titled Cut and the 2nd Sew. I am not announcing they are to be the only letters, I never decide, never, when the time is ripe to write you.
