What is a Soul
Salmabanu Hatim Jun 2019
A soul is different from your heart,
It is unique,
It is your accountability for afterlife,
It is like HIS CCTV camera.
Your soul is abstract,
It never decays.
Your body is material,
Which decays after death,
Without soul, returning to God would be impossible.
With your soul HE said,"BE"and it was,
He blew in your soul.
He installed it in your heart,
A heart that feels all.
Allah collects all souls at the time of Death,
The Angel Of Death does the job,
Together with the data of your all worldly doings stored in the soul,
Every detail to be accountable to Allah on the day of Ressurection,
Your innermost  thoughts, feelings and desires.
So play with your heart,
But your soul, keep for Him,
Choose His right path,
Every deed, every sin is accounted for.

XY and XX
Salmabanu Hatim Jun 2019
His X ***** fused with her X ova,
She gave birth to a baby girl,
He didn't like the outcome,
He wanted a boy to carry on his name,
On her he put the blame,
Stirred quite a fuss.
She lost her patience,
Refused to accept the consequence.
Gave him a piece of her mind,
As his orthodox  mother glared from behind,
My ***** produce only ** ova,
You have XY *****,
Your Y ***** were not quick and manly enough to fuse my X ova,
So be satisfied and keep what you have got,
Better luck next time,
If I give you second chance.

Asian countries still prefer boys to girls to carry on family name but times are changing now.

Parenting
Salmabanu Hatim Jun 2019
Don't treat your children as friends,

Love them but not spoil them,
It's not too late.

My Silence
Salmabanu Hatim Jun 2019
I am silent,
I have given up,
It's useless.
As long as you don't realise what I am going through,
There is nothing left to fight or argue about.
You never understand,
You present me with examples of other people's lives,
I am not them,
I don't have the energy to cry on deaf ears,
I am silent.
Now, I have come to terms with my life,
Adapted to  changes,
No more complaints,
I am silent.
I am healing at last,
I have no more expectations from you,
I have learned to live with Grace and faith in my Creator,
For He is never going to abandon me,
He will  listen to my silence through my tears.

ROBOT
Salmabanu Hatim May 2019
Daddy had a little robot,
It's  body was white as snow,
And wherever daddy went,
The robot was sure to go.
It followed daddy to work one day,
To work one day,
It made the staff laugh and laugh,
It finished their work half by half.
The uproar made the CEO come out,
He too loved the robot without a doubt,
Without a doubt.
He wanted to keep the robot with honesty,
But,it was against the company's policy,
So he told daddy to take the robot
back home,
To take the robot back home.

Salmabanu Hatim May 2019

I move in stealth,
Here, there and everywhere.
Do not fear little friend,
I only come for your end,
To help you to start writing on a new page,
I don't see time or age,
I come to lead you to freedom,
To take you home
Never try to seek me
When your time is up there I will be.

Coffee
Salmabanu Hatim May 2019
Before coffee I am like a lion in a cage,
After I have had my morning coffee,

And I weep tears of joy till my handkerchief  tells me it can hold no more tears.

My Sunflower
Salmabanu Hatim May 2019
She is my sunflower,
Tall and slender,
Attracts me to her cup full of fragrant power.
I am her honey bee,
Busy as can be,
With my buzz and bumble,
My wings tremble,
As I dip into her bower,
To taste her choicest sweets.
The sigh of Lady Rose,
And the tears Lady Tulip knows,
I will hang only onto my lovely miss,
In her kiss I find abandoned bliss.
She is my life's fragrance,
With her beauty and elegance,
I, the messenger of love,
The world our hive,

Thoughts
Salmabanu Hatim May 2019
A penny for your thoughts is now a second for your thoughts,
Or you are always in my thoughts but I don't know how time flies by,
Or you will be hundred years old,
I was thinking of you and you called,
Don't be a slave to time and the fast pace of life,
Just pick up the phone and call,
Or better still, visit the one who is in your thoughts,
Who knows it may your last call or visit.
No regrets.

That 1%
Salmabanu Hatim May 2019
They say 99% is hard work and 1% is only luck.
That 1% makes all the difference in your life.

Ultimately HE decides to give you that 1% or not.
Behind every successful  person is that 1% hand of God.

If your smiles were electrifying
We would have a complete circuit,
You ,me, the kisses and the hugs

Ferarri

God asked me if I wanted a Ferrari.
I smiled and humbly on my knees replied," At this age you want to give me a Ferrari.You know it is low and with my arthritis it will be difficult for me to get in.So my grandson will use it.He will drive around town with his friends leaving his studies.
This will be a problem for me and my son.So I will have to call on you again and again in my prayers to safe guard my grandson whom I love dearly.
Dear God you work in mysterious  ways. Its been ages my family has forgotten you, busy with our worldly matters.We have strayed from the righteous path I
promise to pray on time everyday, give to charity and never ever complaint of what I have not got.I have woken up to your ways. Please no Ferrari  for me,only your forgiveness. AMEN.
