Mico Poem by Mustafa Marconi

My Lord, what is it that thou has created
From my loins
Mico, how you grow everyday
More and more beautiful
You’ve turned my frowns
Into smiles and laughter
I wondered some fifteen months ago
How could I love another
How would I receive you
Questioning the blessings
I was soon to humbly receive
You are truly an inspiration
My pride and my joy
A special gift of comfort and love
How you grow each and everyday
Bigger, stronger, and brighter
You light up my life
Mommy’s life
And Viva’s life
My Lord, what is it that thou has fashioned
From my loins
Striving to be worthy of your love
Forever and ever, Amen
