Poetry Break

Because I was just reminded again of one of my favorite poems as I was preparing for a class I'm teaching, I thought I'd post the poem here, just for fun. It's by a Persian mystic named Hafiz.

The God Who Only Knows Four Words
Every
Child
Has known God,
Not the God of names,
Not the God of dont's
Not the God who ever does
Anything weird,

But
The God who only knows four words
And keeps repeating them, saying:

"Come dance with me.
Come
Dance."
