For the grace of the presence, be grateful.
Touch the cloth of the robe,
but do not pull it toward you,
or like an arrow it will leave the bow.

Images. Presence plays with form,
fleeing and hiding as the sky does in water,
now one place, now nowhere.

Imagination cannot contain the absolute.
These poems are elusive
because the presence is.

I love the rose that is not a rose,
but the second I try to speak it, any name
for God becomes so-and-so, and vanishes.

What you thought to draw lifts off the paper,
as what you love slips from your heart.
-By Rumi (As The Sky Does in Water)

Thanks for viewing! Quite busy these days, trying to spend a little time on flickr. :)

...from the burdens of work and time pressures, wishing.

Better view when pressed (in black).
