...
I used to be shy.
You made me sing.
...
I used to refuse things at table.
Now I shout for more wine.
...
In somber dignity, I used to sit
on my mat and pray.
...
Now children run through
and make faces at me.
...
~ Rumi
.
The wine of life is oozing drop by drop,
The leaves of life are falling one by one.
~ Omar Khayyam
.
Happy are those who know:
Behind all words, the Unsayable stands;
And from that source alone, the Infinite
Crosses over to gladness, and us -
Free of our bridges
Built with the stone of distinctions;
So that always, within each delight,
We gaze at what is purely single and joined.
~ Rainer Maria Rilke
