In The Time Of Corona. Poem by MOHAMMAD SKATI

You do not know
Who smiles to you while
You are silent,
A cup of coffee may
Smile to you
If you know
How to look inside it and
You see different worlds with
Shadows moving as`if
They want to tell something,
The sun may smile to you, but
You don't feel it,
Roses may smile to you
To pick them to whom you love,
A certain road may smile with
Fallen leaves on its sides,
A certain day may smile to you and
As a result you get better,
A passing cloud may smile to you
While it moves to another place
To rain heavily in a pretty way,
A running river may smile to you
While it creeps through mountains,
Sparrows may chatter to you
And you think they sing to you,
Your headache will not last
By Corona's mentioning
Simply because God will heal
Your headache sooner or later,
Only say: " Oh my Lord! "
From your heart.
