Sonnet 1


The sky is blue, the sea is too,

He is The Creator of me and you.

Life’s a surprise, life is short,

You want paradise? Obey your Lord.

Always remember Him even when you’re at the helm,

Fulfill His orders without even thinking of questioning them.

When He calls for daily prayers, don’t say you won’t,

Because He can see us, even when others don’t.

We’re happy or sad, we’re frustrated or glad,

He understands us better than our dad.

So, why ignore Him when he never fails to remember us?

Recite the Quran and the Dhikr even when we’re on the bus.

He told us that our enemy is syaitan,

So why follow him? Haven’t we read the Quran?

He sent us Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) as our guidance,

So why are we not following his (peace be upon him) footsteps? Isn’t that nonsense?

This poem is for me and you,

But reading the Quran is a better thing for you to do.
