Move into the emptiness

Sometimes you hear
a voice through the door
calling you,
as fish out of water hear the waves,
or a hunting falcon hears
the drum's Come Back, Come back.
This turning toward what you deeply love
saves you.

Read the book of your life,
which has been given you:
a voice comes to your soul saying,
Lift your foot. Cross over.
Move into the emptiness of question
and answer
and question
.
-- Rumi
