Zainab's Writings

If I had a room of my own that I could decorate as I wished, it would be pretty different than the rest of the rooms of the house. I would paint the ceiling a clear sky blue. The fan’s wings would be painted red, yellow, and blue, in bright oil paints, so when the fan would be switched on, would become a blur of colors. I would paint one of the walls a sweet purple with big silver polkas. Above it I would print in block letters, ‘My Art Gallery’. I would hang there, framed, the best of my sketches, paintings, drawings, and canvases. My bed would be a big double bed, because I would often invite my friends to spend a night with me. It would have a supple mattress and plump pillows for comfortable sleep. I would buy plain sheets and pillowcases and would decorate them beautifully with fabric markers.The side walls would have big windows to make the room light and airy. I would hang on them pretty chic blinds. My closet would be small and compact, containing a few simple dresse...

I wrote this a few days back when I couldn't write anything but really wanted to. I stare at the blank paper, And wonder what to write. I know this will fill soon, And will be gray, no longer white. What will fill these empty lines, What will I write here? What will kill the emptiness of the blank paper's stare? I hope I write something soon, Just to fill the pages, I really hope to write soon, 'Cause I haven't written for ages!

dedicated to my beloved blanket. Oh, I really love you so! You are wonderful, you know, I cuddle up in you at night, You are a very pleasant sight! You are the one that keeps me warm, It's like you have some sort of charm, Inside you, I will always sleep, My secrets you will always keep. You are something I love to use, It's you I will never refuse, You're really a comfy object, You're something no one does reject. So please don't mind me being the boss, When across the bed you get a toss, When I scramble up and out of bed, And straight for the kitchen I head.

Today I wrote two limericks. Here they are! Shoes The ones, you buy, that are tall, Wearing them,you're sure to fall, They're some called 'slippers', That look like flippers, You can wear them around the hall. Books They're wonderful things called books, The ones who don't read them are crooks, They sometimes contain a story, After reading them you'll always glory, So don't ever trust them by their looks. I just love them!

Here are three things I'd like to wish for if I ever get a magic lamp with the genie inside. Firstly, I wish to go to Jannah, as there is no place on earth like Jannah, and Jannah is the desire of a  Muslim. Secondly, I wish that four of my (two maternal, two paternal)cousins, who have moved out of Karachi, would return at once and for ever to their home-city, Karachi, for I miss them all more than anything. Last, but not the least, I wish I could fly up high in the sky like a bird, whenever I want to. Even though flying is something I've never done(except the two times when I sat in an airplane), I know it's going to be great. It'd be so much fun, to loop the loop between the clouds or to fly upside down. Even flying normally would be fun!

One sunny morning, when I woke up, I realized that I was very hungry. I checked the fridge for something good to eat ,but in vain. The cupboards contained boring stuff. So,I quickly grabbed my purse and rushed outside,in search for some sort of cafe so I could have a fancy breakfast. As I came outside, I realized that I was thirsty too. I saw an Well of water and I ran to it. I scooped out a bucketful of water and drank it. It was sweetish-sour.  No sooner than it had crossed my throat,I realized that It was lemonade! I drank to my fill and continued my search. I saw a strawberry bush and plucked out a strawberry to eat. But to my surprise, it tasted sweeter than usual! Chewing some more, I realized it was chewy toffee, the kind that I loved. Mmmm! I plucked some more to eat on my way. I reached the road, walked and walked,and panted and panted. I felt more thirstier and not far off, I saw a pond. It was full of muddy brown water,but I was way too thirsty to car...

I really don't know what I  am going to be. When I was about 3 years old I spoke of being a bear. That's impossible, of course.  At 7 I dreamed of becoming a Scuba Diver and Whale Trainer. It was the profession of my dreams. Now I remind myself that it's an imaginaton I'm not mad enough to accomplish. At 10, I ask myself what I want to be. I plan to go in the field of education, like my father. I am going to have to bring up ERDC. Me, my brother and sister would have to be the future leaders of it. But alongside it, I WANT to be a list of things that are mentioned below: - A faithful and true Muslim -An Artist. -An Author. -A relief worker. -A Mother. - A Cook. (sort of) Perhaps I won't be ALL of them but I wish to be so. Some things are weird. But dreams are meant to be wild, they are supposed to seem weird. Right now I am lots of things. Here's a list of them: -A good Artist - A nice writer ( I think I am) - A sister. -A kid entertainer + ba...
