I wrote this for my children who are currently still in Pakistan... I expect to see them in a month or so... but time goes slowly under the current circumstances.
Title: Prism Lights
If there were a bridge
To break divide
A way to make
Time slip aside
To walk on water
Seems likely first
But I will see you
Tears will not burst!
I dream you're in your bed at night
I dream I see you taking flight
And as age takes me in it's grip
Your youthfulness begins to drip
You're making headway, worldly true
On a mission – no stopping you!
And as I stop – and then awake
I look down to see you make
Great impressions on the world
Someone smiled and soul was filled
Your eyes are gold filled prism lights
This I dream while I'm at night
Sleep I will, I will sleep tight
Until I have you in my sight
To Xoya and Haytham... with love from dad
