Day 13 of the month long challenge was to write a ghazal.   It’s a nice traditional Persian form that has lent itself to the English literary world.  I wrote a poem or two off topic and now am coming back to the challenge.  Frankly, I found myself not so impressed with any topic that seemed to associate itself with this form.  I had written one a few years back and that was fine.  This year, I had nothing.

Today, I visited the library with my two angelic princesses.  While there, I stumbled on some information about Rumi.  Maybe I’m ready to tackle this.  In any event, I have put this attempt off as long as I am going to do that.
