11 HAIKUs FROM HARAAM, MAKKAH



...by Poetic Tee "here, take a sip"

Heard one reciting
Surah Ar-Rahaman, pure
His heart he offered.

*****************************

Cold, windy Friday
Fajr salat said in peace
Welcome sunshine.

*****************************
 
Stands taller than all
Black shroud, gold calligraphy
Symbol of Islam

*****************************

Bare beauty, best black block
Square, solid, sound, serene stone
Holy Haraam.

*****************************

One black gem attracts
From the east, west, north and south
All Muslims converge.

*****************************

I sit before it
Its aura overwhelms mine
What absolute bliss.

*****************************

Millions walk round it
A billion more adore it
Pure love befits it.

*****************************

Salat call echoes
Pulls to its magnetism
"Allahu Akbar!"


*****************************

Pure in origin
Survives the three dimensions
Then, now, forever.

*****************************

One salat at it
One hundred thousand better
Than one elsewhere.

*****************************

Through ages gone by
Stands its majestic grace
As men kiss it black.
