[nukkad] two poems

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"If thine enemy wrong thee, buy each of his children a drum."
                -- Chinese proverb
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

A raindrop, dripping from a cloud,
Was ashamed when it saw the sea. 
'Who am I where there is a sea?' it said.
When it saw itself with the eye of humility,
A shell nurtured it in its embrace.

by Saadi of Shiraz, Persian Poet
.......................................................

There will be storms, child
There will be storms
And with each tempest
You will seem to stand alone
Against cruel winds

But with time, the rage and fury
Shall subside
And when the sky clears
You will find yourself
Clinging to someone
You would have never known
But for storms.

"Storms" 
  by Margie DeMerell
