Where Everything is Music

Rumi influenced and inspired me a lot. It was truly healing for my soul in dark times, and I guess I don't have to explain why. Just read something he wrote,...

I'm posting one of his poems...

Where Everything is Music

Where Everything is Music
Don't worry about saving these songs!
And if one of our instruments breaks,
it doesn't matter.
We have fallen into the place
where everything is music
The strumming and the flute notes
rise into the atmosphere,
and even if the whole world's harp
should burn up, there will still be
hidden instruments playing.
So the candle flickers and goes out.
We have a piece of flint, and a spark.
This singing art is sea foam.
The graceful movements come from a pearl
somewhere on the ocean floor.
Poems reach up like spindrift and the edge
of driftwood along the beach, wanting!
They derive
from a slow and powerful root
that we can't see.
Stop the words now.
Open the window in the center of your chest,
and let the spirits fly in and out.
-- Jalal ad-Dīn Muhammad Rumi

he said it is for me))

but anyway it is really beautiful, when music mixes with the poem or vice versa. And I can see the sense of this poem has the same meaning as what we have in our life. If we loose something, the music is not over, there is some hidden instrument that keep the sound going on....yes12.01.2010 @ 11:33 | beautiful
