Something opens our wings.
Something makes boredom and hurt disappear.
Someone fills the cup in front of us:
We taste only sacredness.
– Rumi (1207-1273)
These words were sent to me by a friend as part of her birthday wishes, and they touched me so much that I had to post them here.

To keep the glimmer
of passion alive
while the sordid breath of
disillusionment
keeps passion subdued
– Niebla ( © 2008 )
Written using wish, passion and glimmer from 3WW. Less a poem than … well … a wish.
