Inspired by the ‘Dedication’ of ‘Bismi And The Secret of The Kohinoor’

I really like this story, and the author’s Dedication note is touching. It inspired the below.

I thank His Grace for you, my dear,

For you, my dear, have taught my heart

To spring a fount of love so clear,

That falls unto your garden green,

Unstrained and unabated, pure,

And washes all your flowers clean;

So flourish under summer skies,

Where drops of morning dew reflect

The colored wings of butterflies.

And this, beloved, is my prayer

That such a love spring from your heart

To wash another garden fair

Before it leaves the verdant scene

And flows into the ocean love

Of Sayyidi al-Mursaleen.

sallAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam
