Good Morning Poem by Mustafa Marconi

Woke up this morning, my love
Thinking of you
Moments we’ve spent together
Conversation we’ve shared
Outside, the people
Scurry off to work
The children to school
I imagine soon, one day
You too will be traveling
Down the same roads
Woke up this morning, my love
Praying for you
Praying for the blessings
Of a long and happy life
To share with you
Praying for the wisdom
To guide you on the right path
Outside, the people
Scurry away from the promise land
The trumpet sounds aloud
But the many voices of death
Are drowning its chords
I imagine soon, one day
You too will be traveling
Down the same paths
And you too will stand at the crossroads
Got up this morning, my love
Hoping that one day
You could make the right decisions
So that our time together
Could be everlasting
Our conversation ever living
Outside the weak are scurrying
Into their private hells
And the strong are falling by the wayside
I imagine soon, one day
You too will be able to recognize
The right way from the wrong
And I pray for the wisdom to guide you
Through the cesspools and the paradises of life
