Letting Go

More about Letting Go

Letting Go,
Allowing
the flow
of the
All Knowing
like a stream,
a river, an ocean
to run through me,
Has washed, cleansed,
purified beyond pride
any conception
I have inside
of who and what
I am—Allowing all
to dissolve, and evolve
has brought me
ever nearer
to the
True Source
of Who
and What
I am.


In response, and inspired by a poem within the book, THE GIFT, Poems by HAFIZ, The Great Sufi Master, Translations by Daniel Ladinsky.

Certainly not to say I am a master or even an apprentice in any way of poetry or mystical insight—all is simply a creative endeavor to see what my own mind and heart may say of the poem, to try and put it into my own words, or simply to respond to the ideas set forth by HAFIZ, and translated by Daniel.

(My apologies, this footnote will be repeated as I intend, at least presently, to continue in this mode for awhile. I am quite curious how AI will interpret things and how I may work and play, tweek words and such to perhaps change the direction AI is taking, in the end, hopefully to make a dream worthwhile sharing.)
