Istanbul, aboard the Orient Bosphorus

In your deep embrace
Tonight I own the moon
And the stars around
Across the two bridges
Songs and all the celebrations
As we sip wines and pop the champagne
While twinkle of lights reflected
The shower of Dolmabahce palace

Aboard the Orient Bosphorus tonight
The white robe of the Sufi dancers
Rumi's whirling dervishes
Spinning
As dhikr to God, to remember
The god in all of us
Of love and kindness often forgotten

In this moment of oneness with God
I'm thankful for the bounty
And the mercy
Of life only to be lived in joy

I am again in ecstasy

en guzel sozler!!very profound andenlivening words TT!i loved how you presented the poem with such emotion and perfectly complements the piece.

next time try to write a rhyming poem ....

example :

i hate to depth and profundity of insight,
my psyche can reach when feeling out of sight,
rhythm in my soul causing despair beyond melancholy,
false confessions to act of sheerfolly.

Thank you KN for such nice words. I really appreciate it. I wrote this poem during a dinner and a cruise on the Orient Bhosporus ship a couple nights ago. It was a magical night and I felt really peaceful and emotional at the same time. Usually moments like this, I feel close to God, seeing the stars, the vast ocean and how nature and man coexist peacefully usually in the presence of God. It is the moment to feel thankful.

And thank you for such lovely rhyming example of a poem. It will be on my next attempt I hope, when my emotion is strong enough.
