Zenobia Merchant
She lives a life
Befitting that of a Queen
No worldly possessions
But filled with calm and elan
Her Grandpa’s pride
Who fought for her name
Unacceptable in their community
But they still didn’t give in
Like a father’s prized ornament
Which isn’t easy to part
Like a mother’s faith
Which isn’t easy to break
Like a sister’s love
Which isn’t transitory
Seeking passion and affection
From all quarters of her life
Learning things the hard way
She grew strong and held on
No storm was so savage and rough
That couldn’t be navigated with prayers
Thankful and humbled
She lives life, head on!

Zenobia means ‘Queen’ in Latin and a ‘Father’s ornament’ in Arabic
