  • Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain/usher storms but to add colour to my sunset sky.
  • If you cry because the sun has gone out of your life, your tears would prevent you from seeing the stars. 
  • Unending Love

I seem to have loved you in many numberless forms, numberless times…

In life after life, in age after age, forever.

My spellbound heart has made and remade the necklace of songs,

That you take as a gift, wear round your neck in your many forms,

In life after life, in age after age, forever.

Whenever I hear old chronicles of love, it’s an age-old pain,

It’s an ancient tale of being apart or together.

As I stare on and on into the past, in the end, you emerge,

Clad in the light of a pole star, piercing the darkness of time.

You become an image of what is remembered forever.

You and I have floated here on the stream that brings from the fount.

At the heart of time love of one for another.

We have played alongside millions of lovers,

Shared in the same shy sweetness of meeting,

the distressful tears of farewell,

Old love but in shapes that renew and renew forever.

Today it is heaped at your feet; it has found its end in you

The love of all man’s days, both past and forever:

Universal joy, universal sorrow, universal life.

The memories of all love merging with this one love of ours –

And the songs of every poet past and forever.

  • The small wisdom is like water in a glass:

Clear, transparent, pure.

Great wisdom is like the water in the sea:

dark, mysterious, impenetrable. 

  • Faith is the bird that feels the light and sings when the dawn is still dark.
  • Love’s gift cannot be given; it waits to be accepted.
