Poem
Fatiha Morchid
A will
To Lamia’ the femaleTo you my little daughter
The ringing of the murmurs
I silenced
The sad laughter
I drowned
The ecstasy of scents
I buried
When my youth wandered away
To you
All the paths
I never trod
All the waves . . .
I never struggled with
Fear O my dear
Is the sailor’s enemy
To you
All the fruit
My hands forbore . . .
From picking
