Details![]() Please write a poem in any form you like incorporating the below "phrase" in your write. If its not included in the poem it cannot be considered for an award (sorry). I have borrowed this from one of Hafiz lovely spiritual poems and I hope you enjoy working with it! A Potted Plant I pull a sun from my coin purse each day. and "AT NIGHT I LET MY PET THE MOON RUN FREELY INTO THE SKY MEADOW" If I whistled, She would turn her head and look at me. If I then waved my arms, She would come back wagging a marvelous tail Of stars. There are always a few men like me In this world Who are house-sitting for God. We share His royal duties: I water each day a favorite potted plant Of His-- This earth. Ask the Friend for love. Ask Him again. For I have learned that every heart will get What it prays for Most. By: Hafiz Translated by Daniel Ladinsky from "No More Leaving" Happy writing everyone! New poets to the Cafe are especially welcome!
