green abaya

I am wearing a green cotton abaya

and a yellow viscose hijab

my sunnah is sunflower today

I am eating bread

with cherry jam

the cherries are from our tree

but the jam is from my grandmother

I am listening to a thunderstorm

break a summer fever

which had gripped us all today

the rain splashes my knees

where I sit on the porch

but I do not care because

today I know God

perhaps I will eat a bowl of

watermelon next
