Wake Up
The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you.
Don’t go back to sleep.
You must ask for what you really want.
Don’t go back to sleep.
People are going back and forth across the doorsill
where the two worlds touch.
The door is round and open.
Don’t go back to sleep.

Why not “don’t go back to sleep” is clearly explained by - Rumi - and savoured with humour…and meaning….
Your words are like tiptoe and whisper….
Gentle whisperings among the Gods…..
An ocean fartherer than the whale’s delight…where no man goes….
A place at the edge of the world where fables ancient….
Wrap your mind in childhood raptures of flowers and sweet scent…
A place where the forest glows….
in tequila green…..
Stone beasts drop into the ocean at this place
Wary from the day, the stone mountains plunge the shore….
It is more the contrast, the place of obscene beauty and spirit
They say this is the birthplace of Madiba (Nelson)
The place the Gods drink ….
- Kelly SA - Rumi your words are like sunshine on my face, wary after battle and tired of the search - Adious….
