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
