“With That Moon Language”
Admit something:
Everyone you see, you say to them, "Love me."
Of course you do not do this out loud, otherwise
someone would call the cops.
Still, though, think about this, this great pull in us to connect.
Why not become the one who lives with a
full moon in each eye that is
always saying,
with that sweet moon language,
what every other eye in
this world is
dying to
hear?
“With That Moon Language” by Daniel Ladinsky, inspired by the 14th-century Persian poet Hafiz. From Love Poems from God, © 2002 Daniel Ladinsky.
