Put your thoughts to sleep,
do not let them cast a shadow
over the moon of your heart.
Let go of thinking.
do not let them cast a shadow
over the moon of your heart.
Let go of thinking.
~ Rumi
Birds inspire and uplift us with their carols... In the muslc of both birds and humans, beauty is "the wine which overflows." When the last lark has fallen silent, something holy will have vanished from the world. The chorus of life will be muted. The cathedral of the earth will have lost its choir.
