My Gift

a grain of sand becomes a precious pearl
a tiny seed becomes a fragile flower
a small acorn becomes a mighty oak

where would we be without these gifts?
what joy they bring our hearts!

a strand of pearls….each one unique
a bouquet of flowers….each one so fragrant
a bountiful forest….peaceful and alive

each gift wonderful and dear
giving life to every step, every breath

but none of these is more invigorating
none more full of life
than the gift of friendship

the meaning has no sufficient description
words are not enough

no way to explain
no words can describe
unable to express

the feeling of such a friendship
more like blood than comrades

a gift from Allah to be cherished for life
so grateful for you, my friend
just because you’re you
