To love you

To nourish you.

You shake your thought-wings, loosen

your shoulders

and open.

Diamonds which come from no earthly mine.

the side of the hill no grass on it.

The ocean would come to rest somewhere.

Rumi

This is the prayer of each:

You are the source of my life.

You separate essence from mud.

You honor my soul. 

You bring rivers from the

mountain springs. 

You brighten my eyes.

The wine you offer 

takes me out of myself 

into the self we share. 

Doing that is religion.

Rumi

I was you

and never knew it.

Rumi

Everything in the universe is within you. 

Ask all from yourself.

This is love: to fly toward a secret sky,

to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment.

First, to let go of life.

In the end, to take a step without feet.

Rumi
