A Poem For Today - My Heart Wears All Forms

[kdick...@aol.com]

My heart wears all forms:

For gazelles it is an open field,
for monks a cloister.

          It is a temple for idols,
          and for pilgrims the Ka'ba.

                    It is the Torah's tablets
                    and the pages of the Quran.

Love is the faith I follow.

Whichever path Love's caravan takes,

          that is my road and my religion.

By Muhyiddin ibn Arabi
(1165 - 1240)

English version by Ivan M. Granger

Oh yes!
