Even after all this time

the sun never says 

to the earth

"you owe me."

look what happens

with a love like that,

it lights

the whole sky.

Hafiz.

Our union is like this:

You feel cold, so I reach for a blanket to cover our shivering feet.
A hunger comes into your body, so I run to my garden and start digging potatoes.
You asked for a few words of comfort and guidance, and I quickly kneel by your side offering you a whole book as a gift.
You ache with loneliness one night so much you weep, and I say here is a rope, tie it around me, I will be your companion for life.

Our Union by Hafiz. The most beloved poet of Persia.
