Ode To Oxford
Oxford, the beautiful city of dreaming spires,
a place where once oxen waded through the Thames,
Over the years universities lit their fires,
in the most beautiful historic buildings, to be called real gems.
Morse, was the one that made me aware,
Oxford, for years on my wish list,
finally the moment was there,
one look at the Radcliffe Camera, made me feel blissed.
Standing on top of the university church,
enjoying the stunning view,
Oxford, I became aware of this urge,
I want to live and study here too.
New College Chapel, what a divine place to see,
listening to the angelic sound of the choirs,
I felt, this is the place, where I want to be
Oxford, city of dreaming spires.

I would like to translate this poem
A powerful and honesty description of the pleasant lure of Oxford, well articulated and nicely embellished in poetic rhyme and rhythm. A beautiful poem indeed. Thanks for sharing Tina.
