A symbol
Of the mobility
Of Faith
"All the world is
A place of prostration"
All spaces
A place of
Meditation
This simple piece
Of rectangular
Cloth makes
The world
A home and a
Remembrance
That night
She had forgotten
In her haste
To not lose
Time, Or receding
Daylight
This valuable
Piece of cloth
And as her
Head touched the
Wooden parquet floor
And the sun slowly subsided,
She hoped the Faith
In her heart
Would spread
Like a carpet of
Protection and comfort
This act, so reassuring,
Heartwarming,
Paradoxically,
Uplifting.
