THIS MOMENTA Poem by Maimuna HusseinnWith the wars and constant conflict of the world I just thinks this speaks to not only me but my fellow other human beings to give a helping hand.This moment as I speak Bombs are flying over a child's head This moment as I speak A mother is rummaging through her destroyed home, trying to find the scraps of what's left of her child This moment as I speak A young man is being murdered all because he believes there is no one worthy of worship except God This moment as I speak A child cries wondering when his father is coming home. little to his imagination His father is outside his door pavement dripping in blood oozing with tears as the angel of Death shrouds This moment as I speak Will be a moment not only of reflection But a way of solution I implore your hearts for I know we're all human It don't matter if your Christian Jew or Muslim This people are dying This people are crying Lets help as we are living this earth together Lets sleep with assurance that we did to the best of our ability Let help stable this chaotic society Lets make shift of the problems occurring As the Prophet peace and blessings be upon him said This ummah is a body With an ache of a finger Turns it around Can we sit happily as our neighbors frown No This moment as I speak There is some one who needs help Can we give it? © 2015 Maimuna HusseinnAuthor's Note
