Incomplete
Eid
I heard that word
Realizing its festivity
Its more than just a word for a child
Not about the new clothes and sweets
Nor the *eidiya- a chance to buy a favorite toy
Togetherness, the feeling that comes with it
Sheer laughter echoes all the doors
I greeted with smile and tears
I embraced it with sorrow and glow
I celebrated with all my beloved family and friends
I mourn for those who have been fated
Not to join our smiles
Missing its utter happiness for reasons beyond control
My soul is lingering there with you
Where the moment meant
Happiness replacing tears
Joy erasing agony
My joy is incomplete
knowing that in one corner of this earth
You have been deprived to glow in the festive of Eid
As we celebrate Eid, my thought takes me to areas where war and unsettled politics zone awake in obscurity. Hospitals where ill children miss to join other children because of illness, all I have is to whisper a prayer for them

How very sad, and yet a glimpse of a beautiful heart that cares. Thanks for this reminder Nasra!
Eid Mubarak to you :-)
Lovely Nasra. Very lovely. And I really like the door photo. The colors, textures, and shadows are wonderful.
Eid Mubarak wa qul am tu bkair.
I wish I was in Lebanon. What can I say. Eid in a small southwestern town in the US is pretty darn...not Eid like.
Oh well. Al ham du lillah. Allah Kareem.

really nice! The photos give so much power to it.
Eid Mubaarak,Nasra!!
Eid Momadrak.
Heartfelt worldly reminder.
(No, I didn't forget you! Never will. You've made a large impact that reaches to the inner folds of my soul.) I've merely been very busy in real life and rarely in blogland.
I read your tribute to Don and Liz but I htink I forgot to comment. Wonderful interviews on LP site. You're an excellent interviewer!
Its painful Nasra, loss of life, destruction, pain and suffering of thousands, are the results of human greed. Hope sense would prevail one day.
interesting.

Dear Nasra,
Blessings of Eid to you and your family! And yes I agree, I always greet the end of Ramadan with mixed feelings...joy and sadness at the passing of the holy month. Let's pray for peace for all Muslims.
Amin..
Soulfully beautiful
