Dear Subscriber:
Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of
view. The theme for this week is Ramadan, a holy month for Muslims which begins
on May 27.
Today’s poem is a Ramadan poem about the role of faith in
every moment of life.
I welcome comments on my poems at

Yours,
Nick Gordon
Religion must touch more than mind and heart.
A living faith must be a way of life.
Mundane tasks done righteously are prayer,
As outer harmony heals inner strife.
Devotion must not be a thing apart,
Applied when turned towards Mecca. Everywhere
Needs passionate delight and humble care.
