Circles...

[Karen Sella]

A poem by Hafiz (translated by Daniel Ladinsky) that reminded me of you all
and this work.  Enjoy! 

 

 

Circles


The moon is most happy 
When it is full. 
And the sun always looks 
Like a perfectly minted gold coin 

That was just Polished 
And placed in flight 
By God's playful Kiss. 

And so many varieties of fruit 
Hang plump and round 
>From branches that seem like a Sculptor's hands. 

I see the beautiful curve of a pregnant belly 
Shaped by a soul within, 

And the Earth itself, 
And the planets and the Spheres-

I have gotten the hint: 

There is something about circles 
The Beloved likes. 

Hafiz, 
Within the Circle of a Perfect One 
There is an Infinite Community 
Of Light. 

 

 

Warmly,

k
