Stepping Into the Fast...

Stepping into the Fast…

As I stand up for Faj'r

Stepping into the fast

-stepping out of the forest

Into the flowery meadow – vast

Out of the deep cedar

Welcomed by fields of lavender

Away from losing the forest for the trees

Now in the open-appreciating a single breeze

Broken free from the entanglement of the never-ending to do list

That wraps ‘round from feet to minds

Ramadan has unwinded those vines

And released us to this enchanted pasture

Of days with calmer thought

And nights of prayerful rapture.
