Recently I came across the following poem on another blog and felt it was appropriate to share for Spirit Whispers. I have just past my 800th post here at Delights of the Heart. This is the last day for Spirit Whispers as a regular Monday series. I can promise you it may pop up from time to time, just not in a series. In celebration I thought it was time for a give away. I have a small book of poems by Maya Angelou, a small bag of tea from Thailand, and probably another trinket or two I would love to send to someone. Leave a comment on this post and I will announce the winner on Friday.
Your Seed Pouch
Lanterns
Hang from the night sky
So that your eye might draw
One more image of love upon your silk canvas
Before sleep.
Words from Him have reached you
And tilled a golden field inside.
When all your desires are distilled
You will cast just two votes:
To love more,
And be happy.
Take the sounds from the mouth-flute of Hafiz
And mix them into your seed pouch.
And when the Moon says,
“It is time to
Plant,”
Why not dance,
Dance and
Sing?
~ Hafiz
Can't you just imagine Dancing and Singing among these trees heavy with fruit.
They are ready for the harvest.
Go out, loving more and being happy!
