Carats Upon Carats
But had you known the truth firmly in my heart now
That imagination to understand
Is the key to just how
Coming to life across seas and continents step by step
Burgeoning across the world through each living breath
Every cell of every crops yield told:
“Be thankful for the harvest of tomorrow
- Forget not the sorrows of old
Remember whence winter came
God knows just how it got so cold
Ask for forgiveness from his grace
Lest to the doubter again you be sold”
Sheen of amethyst auroras blending with mystic dew
The feeling of a wish fulfilled in heart and mind’s view
Outbidding foreign planets and stakeholders by the billion
Whose worth was said to be valued by their weight and mass in gold
But blanketing Mother Earth with carats by the trillion
Fulfillment was magnetized by her compassionate hold
ای عاشقان ای عاشقان * هنگام کوچ است از جهان
در گوش جانم می رسد * طبل رحیل از آسمان
"O lovers, o lovers, it is time for setting off from the world;
Into the ear of my soul there comes from heaven the drum of departure."
-Maulana Rumi
It’s from الله
