You were so preoccupied

in preserving, serving

ruminating

everyone else’s tablet

we noticed

your story remains

untold

so we asked you to unfold

scribe your book

in letters of gold

scented with camphor

inked in enternia

retelling tales of old

ancient secrets

embedded in your

royal blue blood

transfuse me

through your telling

lessons of longing and love

wisdom foretelling

truths from within

to kith and kin

seekers and wanderers

humans and jinn
