liquid song (for Hafiz)
by Mary Frances Spencer

i sail your words
streams of wisdom
flow
i drink again
of warm beloved’s glow

the dust of time
your sandaled
footprints wind
around the world
in languages
devine

to swim in love
and dive the mystic deep
to fly with doves
a soul that
never sleeps

you dance with moon
ecstatic truth insight
partners gently opening
portals of golden light

the finest verse
i’ll sip your liquid song
and pour a dream
to ease my heart
along
