“…open the love window”

and the lily how passionately it needs some wild darling | painter Maureen Silc
and the lily how passionately it needs some wild darling | painter Maureen Silc

There is some kiss we want with our whole lives,
the touch of Spirit on the body.
Seawater begs the pearl to break its shell.
And the lily, how passionately it needs some wild darling!
At night, I open the window and ask the moon to come
and press its face against mine.
Breathe into me.
Close the language-door,
and open the love-window.
The moon won’t use the door,
only the window.

~ Rumi
