The Waterwheel by Rumi.
“Stay together, friends.
Don’t scatter and sleep.
Our friendship is made
Of being awake.
The waterwheel accepts water
And turns and gives it away,
Weeping.
That way it stays in the garden,
Whereas another roundness rolls
Through a dry river bed looking
For what it thinks it wants.
Stay here, quivering with each moment
Like a drop of mercury.”
Jalal al-Din Muhammad Rumi, Maulana, 1207 - 1273
