A Typical Day in Saudi Arabia

By Mohammad

Scorching, hot,

dusty noon.

Waiting souls,

waiting for the sun to depart.

Finally!

We rush, scramble and

squeeze,

right out of the door

to have sleeping cold silence

awake,

neighbors

to annoy,

goals

to score,

and fun to have.

This joy fills us with enthusiasm.

Kicking a ball between endless streams of sand.

Laughing and playing and yelling.

Feels like it never ends, right?

Until Grandma yells at us and ends it.

Whining, signing, waiting for tomorrow!
