ANCESTRY

​Ancestry- it's journeys through timespace

Clues to my travels can be found
But dues to my ancestors must now be expound

I was born in Pakistan, but brought up in Saudi, I live now in UK but there is more to my entity...
These are just the mere clues that are floating within, come close and you can hear the story, hidden echoing in the howls of the wind…

​

From the lands of Arabias travelled my ancestral soul, gaining depth and flavour through the Persian soil.
New horizons it was out to seek, so nestled near the Himalayan peaks. Subcontinent wars took its toll and tore an identity in half; scampering, scrambling had to choose a side my poor ancestral soul, only to find more turmoil… beat twice over it finally lay beach side, but no rest was destined for this poor soul… the title of immigrant had to be plastered upon his name! Beaten and battered, thrown here and there, scattered piece by piece everywhere, is lost my ancestral soul…

So how do I define my ancestral soil and how do I find my ancestral soul…. It's lost, it's torn, it's beaten and its battered. A traveller's path lived my ancestral soul. A traveller, tis just that, my ancestral soul.
Like the winds, it has come through lands, carrying the histories of its paths….
