Stay together.......Rumi

(Rumi)

Stay together, Friends.

Don't scatter and sleep.

Our Friendship is made of being awake.

The waterwheel accepts water

and turns and gives it away,

weeping.

That way it stays in the garden,

whereas another roundness rolls

through a dry riverbed looking

for what it thinks it wants.

Stay here, quivering with each moment

like a drop of mercury.
