Notes About The Poem

Let yourself be silently drawn by the stronger pull of what you love.

Quote by Rumi

Dual Triolet - Drawn by His Perfection

Drawn by the image of my Lord
This lumpen mass—worthy of none—
Prays to resist the tempting horde. 
Drawn by the image of my Lord
As panting harts bled in the sun
Long for water to be restored.
Drawn by the image of my Lord
This lumpen mass—worthy of none.

Drawn in the image of my Lord 
Out of the miry clay, well spun;
Charmed like Saul by His secret chord. 
Drawn in the image of my Lord  
As resplendent as His dear Son—
My will His own, perfect accord.
Drawn in the image of my Lord 
Out of the miry clay, well spun.
