Pure Heart is a Spotless Mirror
"The pure heart is a spotless mirror in which images of infinite beauty
are reflected,” Rumi
Pure Heart is a Spotless Mirror
Outer beauty shines for a day
Like flowers that fade away
And curls in winter with dismay
Or shrinks along the highway.
It may shine through mirror of eyes,
That captivate a yawning soul
Entrances it up to the sky
Just to accomplish its own goal.
It may shine through mirror of cheeks
That display enlivening smiles
Verging on the Angelique
And embracing savoury styles.
But a heart that`s pure and perfect
Shines like a clean spotless mirror,
Infinite beauty does reflect
That endears any onlooker.
A pure heart framed by the divine
Is rare on earth or ocean,
It mirrors beauty that`s sublime
And like angels lies in heaven.
