One who does what the Friend wants done
will never need a Friend.
There is a bankruptcy that is pure gain.
The moon stays bright
when it does not avoid the night.
A rose's rarest essence
lives in the thorn.

At the request of a Rumi Reader, I have enabled comments, because I agree that someone, sometime might want to write about the power of Rumi's words. So many times they have met me in ways I just have to share, and so I want you to have that opportunity here. There is no expectation for comments, but please do write something if you feel the urge. ~ Ruth
I just learnt about Rumi Poetry yesterday for a class I am taking. I have to read it aloud tomorrow and every time I read it aloud in practice and each time I recite it, I get a different feel, a new inspiration. Wow.
ReplyDeleteSkollexie, that's great. I am thrilled you've discovered Rumi through your class. You have the rest of your life to explore.
