Jimaal.
The leaden sky hung above this tiny Karawan,
wherefore do they travel?
dreams are packed within these
woven camel-coverings, as
their plodding graceful sway
on this warm sultry morning
goes steadily along…
as sure footed these unique beasts
make their way across the desert,
joy always goes with them, love and faith joins their dusty journey,
for without these much loved beasts of burden there would be no desert, no
pungent aroma of aspirations, desires, amid milk and life, no toil and no dreams…
