My Grand Daughter Marziya

My Grand Daughter Marziya, originally uploaded by firoze shakir photographerno1.

placing my
bejeweled hand
on her head
I bless her
for all time
marziya
my grand daughter
embedded as
beauty
in the soul
of my rhyme
beholding
godliness
a thought
sublime
a new world
she opened
up for me
in my mortal
lifetime
a mountain
of devotion
barefeet
I climb
a poetic pause
a poetic pastime
