Zainab Anjum, Reporter
She observes every sight and every sound.
She sits still, yet her eyes wander around.
Now protruding forward, she wants to listen.
Your story is enough to make her eyes glisten.
So as you speak, she holds a pen in her hand.
Your story is what she seeks to understand.
She reaches for her notepad and jots
Your observations, feelings, and thoughts.
Then she weaves these details into words,
Writing all that you said and all that she heard.
She, the artist of language, paints the page
With her brush and the palette you gave.
