Looking For Love
God is within
My Heart is in Harmony with my head
My Spirit soars as a bird in search of New Sky,
The innocence of my life
releases the God I Love Everywhere.
When I look down , I don’t see the earth
and when I look up , I don’t see the vault of the sky–
Whatever I glance at I see you
In truth we are not here.
This is our shadow.
Life Is A Balance Of Holding On And Letting Go

You Are My Face: No Wonder I Don’t See You:
such closeness is a mystifying veil.
You are my reason: it’s no wonder I don’t see You,
because of all this perplexity of thought.
You Are Nearer to Me than my jugular vein.
I am not from the East. or the West,
not out of the ocean or up. from the ground,
not natural or ethereal, not. composed …
My place is place less, a trace. of the trace less.
Neither body or soul. I belong to the beloved
Don’t look for love look for the one looking for love
Your body is away from me
But there is a window open
from my heart to yours.
From this window, like the moon
I keep sending news secretly.
But there is a window open
from my heart to yours.

I love how you put this together! … and I can tell you love Rumi, as do I. :)
Thanks! He is a teacher of mine and yours too I gather.
PS – where did you get your translations? (I hope you don’t mind..)
Mostly Coleman Barks Books,except for the pictorial ones. They came from the public domain on google.
Thanks for taking your time to respond!
