Cover Art for “For You, The Alphabet Sky:
26 Poems of Prayer and Praise to our Creator from a recent Revert Submitter to God Alone”

The Living | al-Hayy

For You, The Alphabet Sky,
and Your throne above the heavens
The constellations spell Your names
The planets kneel beside them

Like fireflies across the grass
You light up everywhere
resembling a starry night
while I recite my evening prayers

Like a guardian, You are welcoming
and like a child, I am needy
I slowly breathe and raise my hands
in hopes that You’ll receive me

Until the day we meet again
Your judgement day fulfilled
Number me among Submitters
submitting to Your will
