A time of people fasting
A time of holding back
A challenge that is lasting
Until the sky goes black
Yet it’s a time of sharing
Uniting at the core
When you seek to be caring
To understand the poor
Despite what has been stated
It’s so much more than that
What has been elevated
Are still words that fall flat
We share this time together
With faith we’ll make it through
Through sun or rainy weather
I’m glad it is with you
A poem I wrote and shared with friends during Ramadan.
