the changing colours and moods of nature
stir in me so much awe and love.
Sharing a few poems and words of wisdom by Rumi that reflect how I feel.
He is a poet that a dear nephew introduced me to
when he gave me a book of poetry titled
La religion de l'amour
When I read Rumi, I think of my nephew, his kindness,
his calm individuality and his philosophy of love.
I am thankful for his priceless gift.
***
I am so small I can barely be seen.
How can this great love be inside me?
Look at your eyes. They are small,
But they see enormous things.
***
When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.
***
In your light I learn how to love.
In your beauty, how to make poems.
You dance inside my chest where no-one sees you,
but sometimes I do, and that sight becomes this art.
