How
Did the rose
Ever open its heart
And give to this world
All its
Beauty?
It felt the encouragement of light
Against its
Being,
Otherwise,
We all remain
Too
Frightened.

We are at
The Nile's End.
We are carrying particles
From every continent, creature, and age.
It has been raining on the plains
Of our vision for millions of years
And our senses
Are so muddy compared to Yours-dear God,
But I only hear these words from You
Where we are all trying to embrace
The Clear Sky-Ocean,
"Dear one - come.
Please,
My dear ones,
Come."
from "The Tale of the Four Dervishes" artist unknown |
This
Union you want
With the earth and sky,
This union we all need with love, (well ;-))
A golden wing from God's heart just
Touched the ground,
Now
Step upon it
With your brave
sun-vows
And help our eyes
To
Dance!
