The Niqab

Within the senses, to see and hear a greeting from a sister through the fabric of
creation, resonates with profound clarity and insight that early morning when
a beautiful sister said hello in greeting fashion and with the best passion of
character a greeting, a morning time to start a new day when her voice would
speak and soft tones resonate as if her lips filtered through her niqab and greeted
me ever so heartfelt, that to this day, her voice, her gift of voice continues to resonate
down memory lane when Muslim character spoke and said a simple hello Anthony
while having opened the doors of my city bus to greet my passengers and the filter
of divinity would shower my existence to the human persona of that morning breath
beyond the mask that sails the seven seas when touched by that voice, by that breeze
as if motive power to thrust the ship and anchor our lives, that niqab, the spoken word
beyond the sails of mighty ships to the lips that tongue the hello oh gracious and eloquent
oh so humble the mercy and soul of fabric design to the ultimate designer that weaves the
human conduct beyond human comprehension as if a bird of paradise uttered my name
and her wings, angelic before her face, feather touched beyond the niqab!
