A Ghazal Poem

A chapter in the book Heart Crafted Poems - 2022

Unknown Destiny

by JLR

Twist and turns slightly bending nowhere,
Just beyond the vacant meadows ending nowhere.

In the green shrouded hedge line,
stone steps are ascending nowhere.

These gray-shaded steps heading into infinity,
so it does seem, extending nowhere.

In a non-dual universe, it matters not
if the steps lead onward, wending nowhere.

Always confident JLR walks forever onward,
with Joy leading him; transcending nowhere.

Found on Shadow Poetry.com I discovered this rather enjoyable poetic style -
A Ghazal is a poem that is made up like an odd numbered chain of couplets, where each couplet is an independent poem. It should be natural to put a comma at the end of the first line. The Ghazal has a refrain of one to three words that repeat and an inline rhyme that precedes the refrain.
Lines 1 and 2, then every second line, has this refrain and inline rhyme, and the last couplet should refer to the authors pen-name...
The rhyming scheme is AA bA cA dA eA
here is my example...Enjoy ...
