Guest guest Posted July 7, 2000 Report Share Posted July 7, 2000 CARRYING GOD No one can keep us from carrying God Wherever we go. No one can rob His Name From our hearts as we try to relinquish our fears And at last stand -- Victorious. We do not have to leave Him in the mosque Or church alone at night; We do not have to be jealous of tales of saints Or glorious masts, those intoxicated souls Who can make outrageous love with the Friend. We do not have to be envious of our spirit's ability Which can sometimes touch God in a dream. Our yearning eyes, our warm-needing bodies, Can all be drenched in contentment And Light. No one anywhere can keep us From carrying the Beloved wherever we go. No one can rob His precious Name From the rhythm of my heart -- Steps and breath. -- Hafiz (Sufi Master), from: " The Subject Tonight is Love, " Daniel Ladinsky, Pumpkin House (books) ______________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
