At this party

Mira took this picture above at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo last week when
we went for Boo at the Zoo. I hope you enjoy the poem below.
Have a great day!!

AT THIS PARTY
~ Hafiz (c. 1320-1389)

I don't want to be the only one here
Telling all the secrets--

Filling up all the bowls at this party,
Taking all the laughs.

I would like you
To start putting things on the table
That can also feed the soul
The way I do.

That way
We can invite

A hell of a lot more
Friends.
