It has been said that poetry is the language of divine experience and enlightenment. Somehow the divine can be more easily captured in concise verses than in long essays. The more concise the verses the more we can find between the lines. It is a paradox, really. Where there is paradox, God is always at work.
So, if you are one who writes poetry in your reverie, or if the poetry itself is your reverie, please share some with us. We will be very happy to savor it.
If someone else's writing has inspired you to greater spiritual heights, please share that also, so that we may be inspired too.
Here are two:
Keep walking, though there's no place to get to. Don't try to see through the distances. That's not for human beings. Move within, But don't move the way fear makes you move.
~ Rumi
Why be vexed by the world? It is the play of light and dark It is being transformed The world is you
