poetry thursday (on a thursday, even!)

The Lovers
will drink wine night and day.
They will drink until they can
tear away the veils of intellect and
melt away the layers of shame and modesty.
When in Love,
body, mind, heart and soul don't even exist.
Become this,
fall in Love, and you will not be separated again.

- Rumi

There once was a man from Nantucket.

And he said with a grin,

:) Well, I hope you do! Now that I've added you, that makes five people on my friends page who do it (one of my "friends", who doesn't have friended any of my other "poetry thursday" friends, also has started doing it). Makes thursdays a joyous and educational poetry day! :)

Nice. I like this one.

It is your turn now

It is your turn now,
you waited, you were patient.
The time has come,
for us to polish you.
We will transform your inner pearl
into a house of fire.
You're a gold mine.
Did you know that,
hidden in the dirt of the earth?
It is your turn now,
to be placed in fire.
Let us cremate your impurities.
