Begin

A poem by Rumi -

This is now. Now is
all there is. Don't wait for then;
strike the spark, light the fire.

Sit at the Beloved's table,
feast with gusto, drink your fill.

Then dance
the way branches
of jasmine and cypress
dance in a spring wind.

The green earth
is your cloth;
tailor your robe
with dignity and grace.
