Warm in the womb

Warm in the womb

By Allah’s grace

Baby is in place

Warm in the womb

Makes me think

Pray for a breeze

When I’m in my tomb

Baby is snug and fed

Swims in a water bed

Totally cared for 

As it works its way out 

With effort and determination 

Has the umbilical cord cut 

So too remember the last day

As the ruh works to leaves the body 

May it be in a gentler way

9 months in the womb 

Equally temporary is years on earth

As we journey to our tomb

As oblivious as we think the baby is

So too we live searching for bliss

Oblivious of a final destination
