Image result for rumi quote about being in the desert when there is an ocean

In trickling branch, I wade Then the creek at the path's end drew my spirit in I stayed, played Now the mill pond Its deep, cool waters refreshin' I bond But then Sea's moves meshin' Yen In trickling branch, I wade Its deep, cool waters refreshin' Yen

Beautiful Sara. This makes me think of my youth and the ties I spent at the beach, just me, my dogs and the gulls.

I do love the feeling you created with your words, Ms. Sara. I felt calm as I read your poem. I appreciate the Rumi quote. He's been one of my favorite poets for many years now. I also liked the use of the word "Yen." It says so much! Have a splendid Thanksgiving, hugs, Sara B

Then the creek at the path's end drew my spirit in I stayed, played---beautifully reminiscing in nature's delight, Sara. I like your Rumi quote.
