liquid song (for Hafiz) by Mary Frances Spencer
i sail your words
streams of wisdom
flow
i drink again
of warm beloveds glow
the dust of time
your sandaled
footprints wind
around the world
in languages
devine
to swim in love
and dive the mystic deep
to fly with doves
a soul that
never sleeps
you dance with moon
ecstatic truth insight
partners gently opening
portals of golden light
the finest verse
ill sip your liquid song
and pour a dream
to ease my heart
along
