Love Beyond Reason

from Walled Gardens

While reason is still tracking down the secret,
you end your quest on the open field of love.
       – Sanai, tr. David Pendlebury, The Garden of Reality, 1976

Love is charity, and charity
is giving with nothing to gain.

Love is serenity, courage, wisdom,
the considerations of change.

Love is peace beyond understanding,
a song in the silence, a calm in the storm.

Love walks through the noisy street
and delights in being a part of it.

Love stands in an open field
and listens to the song.
