You are the sunshine
of mercy, generous giver
the pristine fog floating
over my mountain
of witnessing

Falling as dew drops
your blessings never stop
becoming streams rivers
touching nature with love
meandering journeying
forth to Ocean of Unity

My jug was broken
long ago in rumi garden
thirsty cups going around
O friends o lovers
this fragrant jasmine
a veil of essence
that free all spirits !
