I Love The Poetry Of Rumi

Why should I be weary
when every cell of my body is bursting with life?
I am the rays of the Sun
dancing through the windows of every house
I am carnelian, gold, and rubies
even though this body is made of water and clay
Whatever pearl you seek
look for the pearl within the pearl
The surface of the earth says
The treasure is within
The glowing jewel says
Don't be fooled by my beauty
the light of my face
comes from the candle of my spirit
Rumi
