Rediscovery
This Rumi poem turns to a woman rediscovering:
ای دوست شکر بهتر یا آنک شکر سازد
خوبی قمر بهتر یا آنک قمر سازد
***
Why waste your time chasing
after childish trinkets?
Your Treasure is hiding in plain sight!
The moon whispers:
The time has come to
abandon your sugar addiction
My sweet nectar awaits you
even in bitterness
***
