Poem - Water of Karbala

Nice poem...not sure who the author is.


WATER

When it rises, it's steam
When it falls, it's rain
Frozen in the clouds, hail
Frozen on the ground, snow

Dropping on a leaf, it's dew
Dripping from a flower, its nectar
Falling from the eye, a tear
Flowing in the earth, a river

Trickling at the feet of Ismail, it's ZamZam
Springing from the fingers of the Prophet, Kauthar
And when it is denied, it is KARBALA
