I look to the sky river,
A fluid, timeless, spaceless current,
My heart wide open,
Ready to gather ripples
From the universe,
A hopeful flow that pulls me in
And bathes me
in fingers of light.

A fluid, timeless, spaceless current,
My heart wide open,
Ready to gather ripples
From the universe,
A hopeful flow that pulls me in
And bathes me
in fingers of light.

“the creative lunars are out” she said,
With music like honey on her lips,
And the red moon hanging low.
Into the cold-blue I went outside
with cats dancing in the shadows
and hair cascading into the night
And lay on the playground slide
Still chill and stared into the sky
Mesmerized by her aberration
Comforted by her transformation.

That moment when
the moon sets behind the mountain
and the sun rises from the sea
there is a stillness inside of me

Dear Rumi,
Centuries later,
You have made me cry,
For I too have been here since the dawn of time,
Absorbing essence of light and dark, soil and sky,
But the word,
Your words,
Read from ancient scrolls
Left me bleeding with the thorns of roses wanting more,
Pleading for the universe to make my words eternal,
For my passion, like yours, to last forever,
In hunger, in longing, in forgiveness and in letting go,
To carry this heavy burden of love, in beauty,
Like you,
A brilliant flower garden in the cyclical budding of time,
In grief, and in joy,
for all the universe to hear and feel and love,
That timeless heartbeat aching to be free
Yet wanting to be captured
By her, by me, by infinite melody.
For Noora, Who Inspires,

Today’s clear blue sky
Her supernal sapphire sphere
Eternal longing
Distant blissful heavenly dome
Calls me near, calling me home.
