Huddled Beneath the Sky~rumi


 


Huddled Beneath the
Sky

 

The sadness I have caused
any face
by letting a stray word
strike it,

 

any pain
I have caused
you,
what can I do to make us even?
Demand a hundred fold of me - I'll pay
it.

 

During the day I hold my
feet accountable
to watch out for wondrous insects and their
friends.

 

Why would I want to bring
horror
into their extraordinary
world?

 

Magnetic fields draw us to
Light; they move our limbs and thoughts.
But it is still dark; if our hearts
do not hold a lantern,
we will stumble over each other,

 

huddled beneath the
sky
as we are.

 

~ Rumi ~
