SOULS OF OUR SOULS
‘’She's Reem," said my little Khadija
Naming her new dollie...
Plastic is more durable
Than human flesh these days.
Yet
In the skies far above,
Beautiful Reem,
the Soul of Our Souls
Laughs and prances about
Under the kind gaze
Of Father Ibraheem
It’s a sight to behold,
With all the new-coming children
Each one, the Soul
Of Someone's Soul.
