GOD POURS LIGHT
God pours light into every cup,quenching darkness.
The proudly pious stuff their cups with parchment
and critique the taste of ink while God pours light
and the trees lift their limbs without worry of redemption,
every blossom a chalice.
Hafiz, seduce those withered souls with words that wet their parched lips as light pours like rain into every empty cup set adrift on the Infinite Ocean.
~ Hafiz ~
(Interpretive version of Ghazal 11 by Jose Orez)
