You are the soul, the universe,
and what animates the universe.
I live and work inside you. I speak with
what was found in the ruins of a former self.
Concealed in your garden, I have become a ladder
propped against and leading up into the sky-dome.
Why cry for what is closer than voice?
I ask to hear the wisdom that uncovers the soul.
These four come with their answers.
Fire: You have a saucepan to cook what's raw.
Wear it like a saddle on your back.
Water: You have a spring inside.
Soak the earth.
Jupiter in the goodluck aspect: Show your talent,
Do something outside of time and space.
Jupiter in its bad mood: Be consumed with jealousy.
What else is there?

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
