Ramadan:First Verse

A time of rinsing the sins
A month of happy moods
The way we face god unfacingly
The way we walked our prophets way

The moon a symbol that guides
A creation of allah intwined
Its light reflecting our fast
Till the day breaks does it last

I saw the moon, too. I have friends from all cultures. We are cruel creatures. When each one is fasting, we feast in their face with the greasiest, tastiest, mouth watering food we can find.

Sajdah, This is a lovely poem honoring your faith. I believe that throughout the years, among all of God's children, prophets have been sent to guide us all in righteousness. Whether God is called Heavenly Father, Jehovah, Allah, Budah or Ramadan, it is His love that must be lived inside ourselves. We are one with what we choose and how we choose to live. There is one true light, in my view. The light of righteousness as taught to mankind for his own eternal good. Thanks for sharing. DAS-J

Nicely written. I like the lines "The moon a symbol that guides and Till the day breaks does it last". Keep writing. Sara
