GYPSY
Hamza Hassan Sheikh
I saw a group of nomads
Riding on the camels
And some on feet.
I was disillusioned
To see a fairy
On the back of a camel
Smiling with love
Maddened me and I joined
That caravan
Seeking her.
My feet refused to advance
And she disappeared.
I wanted to search
That unknown gypsy
For whom I strayed
She also made me gypsy.
