Look All Around You (Tanka)

Look all around you

Tell me what is it you see

In strangers faces

Struggle, pain, suffering, love

Perhaps a mirror image

  1. You have no idea how hard I’ve looked for a gift to bring You. Nothing seemed right. What’s the point of bringing gold to the gold mine, or water to the ocean. Everything I came up with was like taking spices to the Orient. It’s no good giving my heart and my soul because you already have these. So I’ve brought you a mirror. Look at yourself and remember me.

    ― Rumi

    Beautiful !!
