Beauty, Love, Poetry

Sunflower, my poem on The Elephant Journal

July 7, 2014 Raidah Shah Idil

20140411_080838Sunflower, my first poem on The Elephant Journal, is published! (Hopefully they fix up the misspelling of my last name)

May this poem be a balm for all wounded hearts, and a call to self-care and self-love. In the words of Shaykh Usama Canon, “Hurt people, hurt people.”
