The Jeweler by The Poet Hafiz

If a naïve and desperate man
Brings a precious stone
To the only jeweler in town,
Wanting to sell it,
The jeweler’s eyes
Will begin to play a game,
Like most eyes in the world when they look at you.
The jeweler’s face will stay calm.
He will not want to reveal the stone’s true value,
But to hold the man captive to fear and greed
While he calculates
The value of the transaction.
But one moment with me, my dear,
Will show you that there is nothing, nothing Hafiz
Wants from you.
When you sit before a Master like me,
Even if you are a drooling mess,
My eyes sing with Excitement
They see your Divine Worth.

All Things Must Pass

You dont mind, do you?
She eyes Look she eyes!
All the papers said so.
"It will pass the time."
Wait till you see this!
I know how to hurt you.
She eyes Look she eyes!
Some were labelled LILLY.
You spoke of binding it.
Yes, he supposed it was.
All the papers said so.
Some were labelled LILLY.
Yes, he supposed it was.
The locked bedroom door.
Some were labelled LILLY.
A brave man could think.
"DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT?"
Your wish is my command.
"Before she gets back,Paul moaned."
Annie came in at eleven.
Some were labelled LILLY.
It stood on three legs.
""In a minute,she said."
Yes, he supposed it was.
Yes, he supposed it was.
Looking the place over.
you have to be careful.
