I'm no good at poems, but I know some poems from Rumi a Sufi Muslim
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rumi
" I bring blessings upon you, (O Muhammad), so that the breeze of
nearness (to God) may increase. Since, with nearness of the
Whole, all parts are allowed to approach." - Rumi

Just as, during the night of the Ascension, God made (the greeting
of peace) with the Light of the Absolute upon Muhammad: "Peace
be upon you." - Rumi
"There has never been a beauty like that of a (Prophet like)
Muhammad in this world or the next. May the Glory of God help
him!" - Rumi

"Yet, I have seen the signs of Your Grace and Kindness in the
appearance of that incomparable Pearl, O Generous One.
Since, although he is from (among) us, he doesn't resemble us. We
are entirely (like) copper, and Muhammad is (like) the (alchemical)
elixir." - Rumi
We learned the skill of being a (true) man from God. We are the
heroes of Love and the companions of Muhammad. - Rumi
Be among the community (of believers) who are blessed by
(Divine) Mercy. Don't abandon the way of conduct of Muhammad,
(but) be commanded (by it). - Rumi

Muhammad broke many idols in the world, so that (religious)
communities were saying, "O (our Sustaining) Lord!"
If it had not been for Muhammad's efforts, you also would have
worshiped idols like your ancestors.
This head of yours has escaped from prostrating to idols, so that
you may recognize his claim (of gratitude) upon the (religious)
community.
If you speak, talk about gratitude for this liberation, so that he may
also free you from the inward idol.
Because he freed your head from (worship of) idols, you should
also liberate your heart by means of that power. - Rumi

Flee to God's Qur'an, take refuge in it
there with the spirits of the prophets merge.
The Book conveys the prophets' circumstances
those fish of the pure sea of Majesty. - Rumi
The Sufi is hanging on to Muhammad, like Abu Bakr. - Rumi
The nation of Love has a different religion of all religions — For lovers, God alone is their religion. - Rumi
He brings all of those (who are) led astray into the Way out of the
desert. May Muhammad be the guide on the Way of God forever! - Rumi

Rumi was a Devout Muslim his entire life and wanted to be remember as such
"I am the servant of the Qur'an as long as I have life.
I am the dust on the path of Muhammad, the Chosen one.
If anyone quotes anything except this from my sayings,
I am quit of him and outraged by these words." - Rumi
