Melody of Madness:

Winter is no longer cold…I’m no longer young. Confusion in my life…the War hasn’t been won. Carnage fills my heart, like war-torn Syria. AIDS & Ebola ravage from Rwanda to Libya. The rise of Atheism immersed in Academia. The demand for Petroleum from Saudi Arabia. America uses ISIS for their warmongering devices. Depletion of the… Continue reading

My Advice to the Ummah

#‎Muslims‬…especially ‪#‎MuslimReverts‬ and/or Muslims native to the ‪#‎WesternWorld‬ are in a serious bind & all because of ‪#‎Islamophobia‬: it’s turning Parents against Children, Spouse against Spouse, Co-Worker against Co-Worker, Neighbor against Neighbor, Friend against Friend. It’s tearing our Societies apart, and if we study the Sirah/Biography of Muhammad (Peace be upon him), the same thing… Continue reading

Forgetting just all too often… …to be grateful for something. We look down upon those who have less… …thinking… Continue reading

About Gareth Bryant’s Writing/Blogging:

This is the official writing-blog of Gareth Bryant. To keep it simple: I just love writing poetry & writing generally. I can make a poem out of anything, and I can write about any subject matter. This is just one of the things that Allah has given me as a talent, and I plan to share that with as many individuals on Earth as possible.

If you enjoy poetry/writing just as much as I do, or even more, then, this page is just for you & so is my writing & poetry. 🙂

Any thoughts, reflections, advice, comments, complaints, please, feel free to leave them, so I can receive them, and make attempts to not only improve my own writing, but to make sure that whoever views this page is able to enjoy what I’m presenting even more, and if they’re not enjoying what’s being presented, that I go out of my way to make sure that they do enjoy it.
