The subject tonight is Love
And for tomorrow night as well,
As a matter of fact
I know of no better topic
For us to discuss
Until we all
Die!
~Hafiz
The story of the poet Hafiz who lived in Iran is adoringly described on another blog site. The poet's muse was a ravishingly beautiful woman whose name was Shakh-e-Nabat (meaning ‘Branch of Sugarcane’).
The shape of this poem on the page reminds me of a Valentine heart. The message is universal. Love shapes our days and nights. Speak about love, every chance you get. Our heart is made sweeter with love.
