Rumi and art from the vaults....

 I just can't get enough of the writings of Rumi...so here's a favorite of mine, paired with one of my pastel paintings called "Afternoon Meadow"... Enjoy.




Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing,
there is a field. I'll meet you there...

When the soul lies down in that grass
the world is too full to talk about.
Ideas, language, even the phrase each other
doesn't make any sense.

  1. That's one of my favorites too! And a nice pairing with the image.

  2. Amazing, I just YESTERDAY EVENING bought a collection of works by Rumi, whom I've always always wanted to read ... your post is just whetting my appetite even more to get to it.
