Ramadan
The blessed month of Ramadan is here
Casting its shadows upon us
A chance to purify our hearts and soul
So with devotion we keep our fast
...
It’s for us to strengthen our souls
This is the most important month of all
Many will heed and hear the call
And some of us will go astray and fall
No one was born perfect
But we are given the right to choose
Some times you try your best for years
And in one moment of weakness you lose
And you go down a brighten road
That glitters as if it’s paved with gold
And are guilty of following the light
Knowing at the end we will lose out soul
But No one is immune from stumbling
And pointing a finger will be to mean
We all will sin many times in our lives
For we all are just human beings
And the one and only god is merciful
Ramadan is a gift of mercy to mankind
To cleansed ourselves of past wrongs
In this month what we seek we will find
The holy month of Ramadan
Is not just only for Muslims
For god didn’t created religions
He created people to follow him
My father was like the perfect Muslim
One of the best men to walk this world
Says god don’t judge you for your religion
It’s for what’s in your heart ands soul
My father could be how sick
He would never miss a day of fasting
Or a night going to the mosque
No matter how hard outside is raining
Every day I think of my father
Especially the holy month of Ramadan
He just sets the perfect example
That we follow the best that we can
Lately I’ve stumbled and fallen down
So I sit in a dark corner writing poem
And I keep saying my prayers in silence
Hoping one day god will answer them
For those who can walk the straight line
May Allah bless you in this month of Ramadan
But don’t look down on the ones who can’t
Say bismilllah and give them a hand
Ramadan is the holy month
That god reveal the noble Quran
The meaning of Islam is peace
To end this poem I say “salaam
