Marziya Shakir our first grandchild turns two months today.
She was born on Nov 24th 2007.
This evening dressed in her black hijab she has gone with her mother and her grandmother, my wife for two majlis at Yari Road.
She will return at 10 pm.
This is the turning point in a Shia childs life, dont be surprised if you see them spontaneously beating their tiny chests , this is the first sign of recognition of a Shia Child..

Marziya loves the camera, and gives me the most endearing poses.
Here my neighbor Ppc has added a magical quality , that says grapes are not sour if they are within your fates grasp..

Marziya says grapes are not sour
with the application of your cosmic mind
you bring hither
within your grasp
what is far
our familys
newest twinkling star
love poetry hate racism
make peace give up war
even beauty hides
within a scar
