Here are two Ridvan Poems written on two different days. Ridvan means paradise. Please click on the above title to be taken to a related website.
Joyous Ridvan
Petal by petal
paradise unfolds before my eyes
in the garden where the Tree of Life
now blooms.
Roses and nightingales proclaim
God’s promise fulfilled
in the appearance of His Glory;
word by word
I intone the tablet announcing
a new age for humanity.
Joy
The scent of roses
and the nightingales song
reverberate through the garden.
Sleepless
because of the proximity of the Beloved
the poet-seeker watches
as the Pen of God’s glory walks
the paths of paradise.
Sleepless
because of the proximity of the roses
the nightingales intone their love.
