Love is the scent with the lotus born.
It is the silent choirs of petals
Singing the winter’s harmony of uniform beauty.
Love is the song of the soul, singing to God.
It is the balanced rhythmic dance of planets – sun and moon lit
– Paramahansa Yoganada
“Come out of the circle of time And into the circle of love.”
~ Rumi
The World is no Match for your Love
This world is no match for your Love.
Being away from you
is death aiming to take my soul away.
My heart, so precious,
I won’t trade for a hundred thousand souls.
Your one smile takes it for free.
~ Rumi

Yesterday at dawn
my friend said, how long
will this unconsciousness go on?
You fill yourself with
the sharp pain of love
rather than its fulfillment
I said “but I can’t get to you!
You are the whole dark night,
And I am one single candle
My life is upside down
because of you!”
The friend replied, I am
your deepest being
Quit talking about wanting me!
I said, “Then what is this
restlessness?”
The friend:
Does a drop stay still in the ocean?
~ Rumi
