Poem for Parents
Parents Love is True like “Shady Tree”
Parents are love, so pure, so true,
Guiding each step, seeing you through.
Holding small fingers, teaching the way,
Sheltering storms, come what may.
Like a strong tree, both fruitful and wide,
They stand by your side with infinite pride.
No sacrifice too great, no cost too high,
They’ll give you their all, reach for the sky.
No bond so deep, no love so grand,
No other hand like theirs to hold your hand.
Through laughter and tears, they’ll always be—
Your lifelong shade, your faithful tree.

A Daughter: Allah’s Precious Gift
The Long-Awaited Prayer The house was quiet, save for the whispered du’as that floated like fragile petals toward the heavens. For years, Amina and Khalid had prayed, their hands raised in the dead of night, tears staining the prayer mat. "Rabbana hab lana min azwajina wa dhurriyatina qurrata a’yunin waj’alna lil-muttaqina imama." (Our Lord, grant us comfort in our spouses and offspring, and make us leaders of the righteous.)

Where's the Glory?
In breaking news, rehabilitated Republican Senator Johnnie Johnson (Pronouns: HE, HIM, HIS) called a press conference from the Men’s room of the New Orleans Louis Armstrong International Airport, Concourse B, across from the Ignatius Reilly’s Lucky Dog stand. The Senator had just returned from a sexual reorientation rehabilitation program in Memphis, TN after being publically disgraced at a Buckee’s Truckstop restroom soliciting sex from an undercover cop three months ago. He is a founding member of the Reformed Christians for Christ, a conservative, pro-family and ex-gay advocacy group. In the spirit of being reborn, Senator Johnson invited reporters to marvel at his plans for a major remodeling of airport bathrooms.
