Poem and new blog by my friend, Eman



Sing .. Sing little bird... Let your voice be heard... Sing Sing loud and clear... drive away your fear...for God still hear watching over you... don,t ever be blue!!... Fly .. Fly to the SUN ... spread your wings don,t RUN... for there must be LOVE somewhere ... you will find SOMEONE to CARE... So, Sing sing little bird ... let your voice be heard... forget all your SORROW ... for there,s always TOMORROW......
written By: Eman El-sheikh


I have a beautiful Muslim friend, who is the author of the poem above. Eman and I became friends via Facebook and we had a strong connection right from the beginning because we both admire Yusuf Islam (formerly known as Cat Stevens). It was at his site that we met, as we both left comments there and "liked" what the other wrote!

When Eman posted this beautiful image and her lovely poem on her Facebook wall last month I asked if I might re-post them here. The empty birdcage/bird flying free is my icon at Clutterquake, and you will notice that I have various images all down the sidebar in keeping with that topic. I will add the image above to my sidebar and will think of Eman each time I see it there.

Eman has a brand new blog titled We are the world. I just became her first follower, and it was an honor to do so. Stop by her blog to say hello if you have an extra moment or two to make a new friend!

Thank you for your poem and for your friendship, Eman. You are a very special woman and light in the world.

i love cat stevens too, and that image is so neat, especially the shadow being so cleverly misleading for just a moment.

You are right about that shadow...very well said. Thank you so much for visiting my blog and leaving a comment!
