The beautiful Dishdasha got nothing to do with it. It is just a dress for the hot weather. And I am starting to like it.<br /><br />Thanks for the comment Khalid.saminkiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11618883213770392362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27235317.post-84340222480362953162009-07-31T10:39:58.770-07:002009-07-31T10:39:58.770-07:00Sami,

Al Dishdasha is specially advented by our grandfathers to suit our hot weather. Also, because of its practicality, the Iraqis wear it in the farm. You know we have two rivers and we are a nation of farmers since the time of Sumerians and Babylonians who succeed wearing the Iraqi Dishdasha to build the first well-established civilisation in the history of man kind .<br /><br />Thank you Sami for remembering our Dishdasha,Khalid from iraqiblogupdates.blogspot.com/https://www.blogger.com/profile/13020328563994559784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27235317.post-68909203585542939922009-07-31T07:26:20.967-07:002009-07-31T07:26:20.967-07:00Hi Touta and Sandybelle.

Here it is, in full:<br /><br />Ode to the Watermelon<br /><br />The tree of intense <br />summer, <br />hard, <br />is all blue sky, <br />yellow sun, fatigue in drops, <br />a sword <br />above the highways, <br />a scorched shoe <br />in the cities: <br />the brightness and the world <br />weigh us down, <br />hit us <br />in the eyes <br />with clouds of dust, <br />with sudden golden blows, <br />they torture <br />our feet <br />with tiny thorns, <br />with hot stones, <br />and the mouth <br />suffers <br />more than all the toes: <br />the throat <br />becomes thirsty, <br />the teeth, <br />the lips, the tongue: <br />we want to drink <br />waterfalls, <br />the dark blue night, <br />the South Pole, <br />and then <br />the coolest of all <br />the planets crosses <br />the sky, <br />the round, magnificent, <br />star-filled watermelon.<br /><br />It's a fruit from the thirst-tree. <br />It's the green whale of the summer.<br /><br />The dry universe <br />all at once <br />given dark stars <br />by this firmament of coolness <br />lets the swelling <br />fruit <br />come down: <br />its hemispheres open <br />showing a flag <br />green, white, red, <br />that dissolves into <br />wild rivers, sugar, <br />delight!<br /><br />Jewel box of water, phlegmatic <br />queen <br />of the fruitshops, <br />warehouse <br />of profundity, moon <br />on earth! <br />You are pure, <br />rubies fall apart <br />in your abundance, <br />and we <br />want <br />to bite into you, <br />to bury our <br />face <br />in you, and <br />our hair, and <br />the soul! <br />When we're thirsty <br />we glimpse you <br />like <br />a mine or a mountain <br />of fantastic food, <br />but <br />among our longings and our teeth <br />you change <br />simply <br />into cool light <br />that slips in turn into <br />spring water <br />that touched us once <br />singing. <br />And that is why <br />you don't weigh us down <br />in the siesta hour <br />that's like an oven, <br />you don't weigh us down, <br />you just <br />go by <br />and your heart, some cold ember, <br />turned itself into a single <br />drop of water.<br /><br />--trans.
