HANDFUL OF RAIN

Anoona, who lives in Qatar with her family, weaves her prayers and hopes into words. From the scorching heat, where her husband softly reminds her whenever the sky darkens, to the awe-inspiring sight of the sky, she finds. Inspiration. She sees it as a prayer answered from the seventh sky. Even in her first poetry collection, Anoona was drawn to the sky, writing about rain and its many faces. Her longing to express her emotions through rain is deep. She describes how it paints strokes of emotion across her heart and fills her with visions of rain melting into nature and into the lives of those who are drenched in its grace. Anoona doesn't consider herself a poet; she's just an ordinary girl who dares to feel deeply. Each poem is a season flawed, nostalgic, and luminous. Rain becomes a metaphor for longing, surrender, and emotional rebirth. This collection carries Anoona's season, which holds what her mind refuses to leave carelessly. It's the season of her birth, life, and death. It carries her monsoon, a time of cleansing and renewal.
