"The Heart's Garden"

"Love, the life-giving garden of this world." Rumi

---

This collection has been influenced heavily by the beautiful poems of Rumi, an exceptional Persian poet of the 13th century.

 “I, you, he, she, we, in the garden of mystic lovers, these are not true distinctions."
"Love, the life-giving garden of this world."
"The garden of the world has no limits except in your mind. Its presence is more beautiful than the stars with more clarity than the polished mirror of your heart."
"This outward spring and garden are a reflection of the inward garden."
"Grief can be the garden of compassion. If you keep your heart open through everything, your pain can become your greatest ally in your life's search for love and wisdom."
"Pull the thorn of existence out of the heart! Fast! For when you do, you will see thousands of rose gardens in yourself.”
