Celebrate with us this holiday season the sense of the sacred in the everyday--day in, day out.

Join us in the spirit of glorious carol (original meaning: "joyful song danced in a ring") by sharing aloud a savored poem that has touched you personally--whether it be Rumi, Rilke, Tagore, Oliver, Angelou, Dickinson, another Poet or your own lyrical outburst of the Wholly.

For more inspiration & poetic nudges, contact: Dennis at heartsongnola@gmail.com or Evelyn at crossroadsdispatches@gmail.com or the Rumi-nator Meetup group at www.meetup.com/poetry-467

It helps,
putting my hands on a pot, on a broom,
in a wash
pail.
I
tried painting,
but it was easier to fly slicing
potatoes.
~ by Sufi poetess Rabia
