Arabic poem?

Description:
Arabic poem? The left margins of the recto are too torn and shabby, but of the verso the second halves of the sentences were left, and they all seem to end with the rhyme 'ya'. Ar. 606-3 and 606-4 are part of Ar. 606-1, 606-2: the small chunk of paper fits into the lower tear of Ar. 606-1 and 606-2. (although the verso and the recto of these two fragments are contrasted in the way the faded: Ar. 606-4 is less faded than Ar. 606-3, while Ar. 606-2 is more faded than Ar. 606-1).
