When you unexpectedly wake to snow in April you must immediately crawl back into bed with your Rumi, hot tea, and all the kitties to wait for spring to come back

My last Rumi poem of 2023. I don‘t think I‘ve ever enjoyed a daily reader so much, or ever planned to flip right back to the beginning before and spend a second year with one to see how the selections strike me differently on new days.

AnnR Nice photo and I like the teacup. Very colorful! 11mo

I started reading this poem a day volume midway through September. It is just the right amount to read and reflect each day. It‘s amazing how much an Islamic Afghani man born in 1207 can touch this Christian American woman‘s ❤️ in 2021.
