Play a cheerful note Chant a joyful thought Be in love with butterflies With silkworms And the starry skies ….. With beetles With a cockroach song With rivers running all along…. With seas and oceans and the moon With a hopeful wish coming so soon With shooting stars in the orbit bloom With the winged red mare And with her groom …… With any true friend With the glorious band With a humming bird With a grazing herd ……….. With shadows as well as with trees With footprints and with the breeze With snow flakes and with rainbows With donkeys and with every rose……… With a ladybird, with a grasshopper With the beloved and with the lover….. With a spider net With a spotted hit With the highest cliff With an ancient stiff ……… With a drop of rain…. With a waterfall…… Pouring their selves Towards the goal……….
I am a Lebanese female poet, researcher and writer in Arabic and English.Fourth of January, 1957 I was born in Quarnayel, Lebanon.

His poetry, writings, music, and universal thought is a real fountain for my spiritual uplifting. Chief Seattle’s “Message To the Modern World” broadened my views and deepened my interrelationships with Mother Nature and the GREAT SPIRIT. John Lennon is my daily friend. I recognize his song “Imagine” as my national anthem. I am a fan of Yoko Ono; I appreciate what she gave to the “whole world” through her love to John. I believe that the cosmic law is the only law that any creature must follow in order to understand the simple truth of life and death: that is another form of existence.
