Verse First - Writers are Lovers
Choose one poet you adore and write a piece to honour or express that adoration.
One of my favourite poets is Jalaludin Rumi. So my poem today is to honour this great poet. My blog headline is a quote by Rumi.

Oh Rumi
Ardent student of Tabrizi
Your poems soothe the soul
Spiritual ecstasy
Divine intimacy
An ode to Spirit
Does truly uplift
Devotion to love
Peaceful like a dove
Heavenly mysticism
Entwined in Him
Spiritually liberating
Life exhilarating
Immortalised in verse
With heartfelt verve
Oh Rumi
Ardent student of Tabrizi
A gift for those who seek their soul

Poetry Jam - Steps
Life is a journey
Starts with one step
Easy or stormy
Like the flow and ebb
Each step that I take
I learn something new
Asleep or awake
Takes me closer to You
What will I take away?
When I stop my own tread
Savour each moment and day
Don't think too far ahead
Life is a journey
To feel and know
A gift not a tourney
Take steps to grow
~x~
