I once knew a dervish

I once knew a dervish I once knew a dervish Who could turn and dip All in the same moment. She was drunk with God. Ya Jamilla, her beauty Lifted us to Holy Realms And More. And all the while, Our feet and hers Stayed grounded On the floor. She turned so fast Our heads would spin; Our hearts would leap for joy! In those moments We turned with her And Unity adored. The secret to the perfect turn Is to do it every day; To dance in life And treat all strife As God inspired play. © 2007 Shamsuddin... Sign in to see full entry.
