Eternal Loves, Poem

Eternal Loves 

Poem by Sidi Naajee

 

The cloud and the rain

The rain and the sea

Immortal pairs


The flower and the nectar

The nectar and the bee

Interminable buds


The mass and the curvature

The curvature and the gravity

Indefinite overtures


The rainbow and the spectrum

The spectrum and the light

Incessant colors


The husband and the wife

The wife and the love

Indestructible ties


The You and the me

The me and the You

Eternal Loves


RhA (RIP) My Love, Ricki Rae Babcock Nadji 

October 13th, Poem

October 13th

Poem by Sidi Naajee 


On a beautiful fall day 

Ricki and I drove away

To the Capitol Lansing

With hearts prancing 

Full of hopes and love

'n barakat from above

2 friends of the bride

Joined us for the ride

Sh. Sobani, officiated

AHLL, we got united!

Her shart was clever!

No sister wives, ever!

Mine was that it forbids 

Heathen names for kids

Wedding party followed

Simple 'n not so crowded

My friends 'n hers came

To help light our ❤️ flame 

Her family was there too

To bless the Union of two

Lovers who shared a dance

That lit 34 years of romance

Eight kids were there with us 

They were our pillars 'n truss

Were it not for death 'n fate

October 13th, another date

Would've been a celebration  

Of the lovebirds' coronation! 


Happy 35th Anniversary, Sweety!

RhA (RIP) Beloved Ricki Babcock Rae Nadji
