To Naomi, Innaz and Amber ...and you too Nisa




Hello Girls,

What beautiful girls you turn out to be,
I hope you realise how special you are to me.
To my niece Naomi, Innaz and Amber,
and my good friend's baby girl, Nisa,
I have watched you grow from being cute & mischievous
to be such pretty and tall young lasses

Please I beg you to listen
I hope you would try to understand
there will be plenty of time in the future
for you to fall in love with a man

Please believe me when I say
you need more than love to be alive
No man can come and save your day
only you have the power to decide

To be a women of independent means
To have the power to realise your dream
To work hard and do your best
Its a great feeling I can attest

And one day Insya-allah
A men worthy of your love
He will see more than beauty in you
He'll see a woman with depth and virtue

For nothing beats a life lived honourably
with purpose and direction
God has a plan for you and me
we should put our faith in His wisdom

You are all jewels, precious as can be
there's a million possibilities
don't squander your youth on teenage romance
knowledge is power just give it a chance...

I love you, I truly do
I can see myself in you
Be nice, be wise, be true
know that I will always be there for you
Love Lots of It from

Auntie Liza...aka Auntie Fara (f. Nisa)

PS Now I did not just put words in this for it to rhyme, Every single word comes from the heart.
Do spend some time to contemplate your future.... talk to your parents on your options.
