Persian majesty

Bequeathed to minions.
His words are majestic
Wisdom for all to see
Cost is insignificant
His intentions were, they are all free.
Banished from his hometown
Poor vision in a Sultans might.
Driven out of
By delinquent raiding fights.
Today across this Earth
His wisdom en masse resonates
Just simple words of meaning
Love and Peace, endorse before it’s too late.
From within the reed bed
resounds the flute
Sweet sounds of birth
transforming this earth

Lovely poem. Would like to know what inspired it.

DeleteThe poem is something I wrote after a presentation on Rumi at the Southend poetry group.
My “Flute” Poem was inspired in the same session.
Interesting format, I wonder if it was my mistake in not grouping the first four lines together; I can amend this if you wish Rob. Some lovely words & phrase pairings that work well together.
