Hi everyone
Just wanted to share this piece - a true description of some girls I have met. They have so much to share with the world yet they have set boundaries.
Enjoy!
As I sit here
Behind my chadar and char-deewari
My mind roams the streets of Paris
Scrambles through the ancient ruins of Rome and Greece
Meanders through the moors of Wales
Wanders the deep dark jungles of Africa
As I sit here,
Behind my chadar, char-deewari
My heart skis on the slopes of the Alps
Swims in the clear waters of the Mediterranean
Crosses the Sahara on the camel’s back
Rides the sky on the parachute
As I sit here
Behind my chader, char-deewari
My soul contemplates the meaning of ‘life’
Discusses ethics and morality with itself
Debates on the third world debt crisis
Reflects upon the ‘Right Path’
As I sit here
Behind my chadar, char-deewari
I die a thousand deaths
But that doesn’t matter
As I sit here
Behind my chadar, char-deewari
I wither away like autumn leaves
But that is *OK
As long as I sit here
Behind my chadar, char-deewari!!!
