~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
whenever you meet
someone deep drunk
yet full of wisdom
be aware and watch
this person is enthralled
only by love
anytime you see
someone who seems gone
tipsy and happy
filled with rapture
be sure and observe
this is the condition
of someone in love
if you see a head
happy and thrilled
filled with joy
every night and day
this head was fondled
by the fingers of love
every moment
someone is blessed
a tree sprouts
an angel flies
even a monster
leaps with delight
when your body
feels together
when your soul
wants to unite
you are chosen
for a blissful love
-- Ghazal 2132
