Wow u must be a prodigy to write such a classical quality poem. It has a great rhyme scheme and meter and reads beautifully. I\'m indoarabian so the title wih nishapur attracted me. Kudos.
U r most welcome to comment under my latest poem too . I\'m quite a new poet here but have been writing poetry since years and readers enjoyed it elsewhere or got sth from it until I found this site and wish to make new poem pals.

A Story from Attar
\"This, Too, Will Pass\"
A powerful king, ruler of many domains, was in a position of such magnificence that wise men were his mere employees. And yet one day he felt himself confused and called the sages to him.
He said:
\'I do not know the cause, but something impels me to seek a certain ring, one that will enable me to stablize my state.
\'I must have such a ring. And this ring must be one which, when I am unhappy, will make me joyful. At the same time, if I am happy and look upon it, I must be made sad.\'
The wise men consulted one another, and threw themselves into deep contemplation, and finally they came to a decision as to the character of this ring which would suit their king.
The ring which they devised was one upon which was inscribed the legend:
THIS, TOO, WILL PASS

Inspired by Franz Marc
Augustus said:
Love the Haiku. The first is my favorite. I did not know of Franz Mark. I googled him and he had a style that is more apealing to me than most of the \"cubists\" I love his horses.

Climbing Trees ~ Stanza I
Augustus said:
As a child I spent much time in a tall wild cherry tree. Mostly when I was sad. Perhaps we are closer to God there. Nicely done.
