when i was born my Eyes were closed
& i was told what i would see.
when i got older my Eyes opened;
i didn't look i just believed.
then i started to See & Look,
Think, Read & Remember-
Words made things complicated;
the Truth i saw was Simpler
so i went to the teachers who taught
& said i don't See what you Teach.
they said "that's OK, son: neither do we.
Forget what you See & Believe.'
i said: "if i close my Eyes again
& Ignore the Truth for your sayings,
then i would surely be lost.
i'm going to find the Right Way."
i kept my Ears tuned
to the beat of my Heart
& my Eyes on a Light
far & dim
til i heard of a Teacher
Whom everyone said
Was also my Brother
& Friend.
He taught of a Love based on Unity:
1 Message 1 People 1 Way
He taught us about Eternity
& making the Most of each Day
My Teacher is Someone i never met
named Ahmed, that's short for Muhammad
i add 'Peace' to His Name everytime i say it
Peace & may GOD Bless GOD's Best
had i ignored the Light
& re-Closed my Eyes
i'd be cursed
& not Blessed by the Signs
