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 urging the faithful not to
fear secular knowledge.
I welcome comments on my poems at

Yours,
Nick Gordon
Roam anywhere you wish, and then return.
All you want to know, you ought to know.
Maybe you're afraid that what you learn
Apart from holy things will turn your head.
Delight in Allah everywhere you go,
And feed your hungry mind till it's well fed.
Nor need you for your faith one insight spurn.
