Today




On a day when the wind is perfect,
the sail just needs to open and the world is full of beauty.

Today is such a day.

My eyes are like the sun that makes promises;
the promise of life
that it always
keeps each morning.

The living heart gives to us as does that luminous sphere,
both caress the earth with great
tenderness.

This is a breeze that can enter the soul.
This love I know plays a drum. Arms move around me;
who can contain their self before my beauty?

Peace is wonderful,
but ecstatic dance is more fun, and less narcissistic;
gregarious He makes our lips.

On a day when the wind is perfect,
the sail just needs to open and the love starts.
Today is such a day.

~ Rumi
