 The Qutub Minar

The Qutub Minar, minaret,

Built in early 1200's in

Stages in varied storied set,

Construction on and off again.

In Delhi at old Lal Kot site,

The tower planned and financed by

Islamic Ghurids to bring light

To their new home to edify.

Over years, story by story,

Rose up in red and gray sandstone,

In time and place to build glory,

Centuries later still be shown.

The Qutub Minar built to be

"Victory Tower," sight to see.
