Missing Mazie ...Circle Around the Zero

[Guest guest]

The Circle Around the Zero

 

A lover doesn't figure the odds.He figures he came clean from Godas a

gift without a reason,so he gives without cause or calculation or

limit.A conventionally religious personbehaves a certain way to

achieve salvation.A lover gambles everything,the self, the circle

around the zero!He or she cuts and throws it all away.This is beyond

any religion.Lovers do not require from God any proof,or any text,

nor do they knock on a doorto make sure this is the right street.They

run,and they run.~Rumi by Coleman Barks"Feeling the Shoulder of the

Lion"

 

Thank you Beloved Mazie Lane, for posting this poem which has remained

in my mind since you posted it a few weeks back. "I" just kept

putting it together with this photo, which I had posted before, of

Neshaminy Park. Two lamps, one light.

 

Mazie, know that your posts are missed. But your presence is alway

here. So, even if we don't hear from you for a little while, there

are still many Amazing Mazie ShivAllahSita Sutras in my mailbox that

I can go back there for inpiration in the meantime...Sparkling Jewels,

selected with Love, chosen with Wisdom.

 

Loving you very much,

 

Joyce
