Moments of Wonder and Ponder

                                                                     Night The hushed serene night is dull and soundless.     Noiseless, peaceful.                                                     The darkness of soot-black spreads through,   None is up, except a few. The lonesome owl hoots, Rain pours down into the trees' roots, The little bird's nests are warm and cozy.  The outside lights are dim and mothy.    Cats wait to catch their prey,       While mice scurry down a pile of hay. The tranquil night passes by,      As the vibrant stars light the sky,         As a decoration fo...

  السلام عليكم ورحمة الله Khadijah here. Alhammdulilah I made these little crafts from household materials I found, it was very interesting to re-cycle them. These were made from an old cloth bag that my older sister had when she was a baby. Mama samosa Papa samosa big-eyed baby samosa This is Ollie - the fifth member of our family, she is a six-month-old kitten that we picked up from the streets. These plushies were mainly made for her - she thankfully loves them (papa samosa best, for no reason!)  and really enjoys playing with them. Using the wood pieces that always comes in a canvas packaging, I made this sign that is pasted in front of our door. Home sweet home inspired. This was a filter initially, I turned it into a pot and planted Basil plants. Saplings of Holy basil (Tulsi) in a DIY filter bag pot wrapped with twine Perhaps you remember we said long ago we'll show the  patterned paper wall posters  project, it was finished some months ago. The lamination and...

Poem 1. Red By Khadijah Dilshad Red is the lipstick that girls wear.  Cherry is my adorable teddy bear.  Rose are those cheeks that are squeezed.  Ruby are those lips when mom is pleased.  Blush is her face when she isn't pardoned.  Crimson is the lovely roses in my garden.  Tart is when the skin got atopy.  Scarlett is the lovely poppies.  Maroon is that handsome shirt. Rufous is the color of the tiny hummingbird. Poem 2. Grey By Khadijah Dilshad Grey is the little cheeky kitten.  Grey is the winter woolen mittens.  Grey is the dull college school bag.  Grey is the old throw away rag.  Grey is the rain that falls down.  Grey is the face of one who loses his crown.  Grey is the mind of the one with depression.  Grey is one that has a phenomenal obsession.
