Comment on Poem / Salmon by darvish

Alhamdulillah! A really wonderful poem, Brother Abdal-Hayy
Indeed, the salmon mirror in their upward striving to procreate before they die, the course of us humans as well at a slower pace. How really simple it is in perspective

Ya Haqq!

Dear Jawid: Salaama

I’m a bit stunned you can’t email me… I’ll email your address with mine to see if it gets through… I pray you and your wife are well… and you’re well into new volumes of Masnawi! Your reading of the selection is really wonderful…

ma-salaama

Salam Abdal-Hayy,

Thanks for your e-mail message. My e-mails to you keep bouncing — is there a problem with that address? Anyway, I am glad to find this alternative way to reach you!

Gardens in 4 directions radiate from the musical piano center.
The windows in the heart make it all visible… beauty measure by
measure.

Assalaamu alaikum Sidi,

I am rarely”online”
anymore but happened to visit your blog this morning. “Song of Departures” reflects alot of what life has been like lately, arrivals and departures. So much letting go and so much more to let go of, and yet not forgetting to warmly welcome.

9/18 is my birthday.

Thank you Sidi.

wasalaam.

Deborah, thank you for your so sensitive response. It illuminated the poem for me too (the one who writes these poems is the “night” one, I’m his “day ” rep.) And may He bless your friend’s passage and assuage those left behind. For us it’s all a “die before you die” affair…

I had a friend pass this week, so when I first read this poem, my thoughts were on death, life reflection and crossing over.

All morning I pondered and pondered on this poem, until I realized that I had come to a place where the windows looked in, and I hadn’t even realized that I had left.

Awesome mashaAllah! I never read such beautiful poetry before. I am a poet myself; just starting writing poetry like 2-3 years ago as a hobby…

Coming back to your poem here, I liked the transition from “reaching places like Africa, lagoons” to “reaching God”. It was abrupt but the connections intended were made quite smoothly although I feel there was something missing here.

How do we get from where we
are to where we aren’t?

From our circumscribed mortal being to
full flight before God’s endlessly

Can’t point out what exactly it is thought but something….

I still have to digest the ending a bit…If I had anything worthwhile to contribute after fully understanding this piece, I will post a comment here inshaAllah.

Keep it up inshaAllah.

take care
Assalam-u-alaikum
