The Secret Turning
A secret turning in us makes the universe turn. Head unaware of feet,
and feet head. Neither cares. They keep turning.
Compiled by Coleman Barks, i.b.i.d.
“Come, come, whoever you are. Wanderer, worshiper, lover of leaving. It doesn't matter. Ours is not a caravan of despair. come, even if you have broken your vows a thousand times. Come, yet again , come ,
come.” - Rumi
