Pearls (from Rumi, the eternal poet and visionary):

"Just wait a while,

turn your back and

remember what you have forgotten.

Try to find, if you ve lost.

Apologize if you ve hurt,

forgive if you ve been hurt.

Because life is too short."

*Shamz Tabriz

"Those who don t feel this Love

pulling them like a river,

those who don t drink dawn

like a cup of spring water,

or take in sunset like supper,

those who don t want to change.

Let them sleep."

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

"Don t let them think that we ve broken down.

That we've cracked up.

We merely dropped leaves,

for a further spring."

Rumi s poetry, more alive then reality itself filling the purpose of all POETRY: disturbing the rotten order of our minds and waking us up for a more inspiring, alive, true and exciting way of being ourselves.

Poetry should be ready to be eaten, drank, savored in all its glory and applied in practical daily life. After drinking a bit of (dangerous, like Dance) poetry, you often feel like making love to someone you re absolutely passionate about or going out in this crazy world and fight for the realization of your dreams. Isnt it THIS the actual function and purpose of all poetry?

I am guessing: Yes.
