FABULLOUS
The document contains 12 short poems describing different bulls through metaphor and symbolism. The poems portray the bulls as scared, deceitful, displaced, broken down into parts, falling apart physically and mentally, reduced to skeletons, and rotten away. Overall, the poems use the image of bulls to represent various negative psychological and emotional states.
When you are old
This poem is addressed to someone who is old and reflects by the fire. It encourages the person to read the poem slowly and dream of how their eyes used to look in their youth, and of the many people who loved their beauty, whether truly or falsely, but one man loved the person's soul. As the person bends by the fire, the poem murmurs how love has fled and paces upon the mountains overhead.
Rumi & Love
The document discusses several poems and passages from Rumi about love, separation from God, and the need for divine grace. It explores themes of longing to reunite with one's source, being so close yet far from the divine, and allowing God to transform one's heart into an instrument of love.
RUMI and me
A humble presentation - a spontaneous result of awe and inspiration on my reading - THE SUFI PATH OF LOVE
The Spiritual Teachings of Rumi by William C. Chittick
Cradle my heart
The poet lays on the rooftop at night, thinking of his beloved. He sees a special star and asks her to deliver a message to the "Sun of Tabriz" to turn his dark stones to gold with his light. The poet opens his chest to show the star his scars and asks for news of his "bloodthirsty Lover". As he waits and paces, his "child of heart" becomes quiet and sleeps as if being rocked. He asks his beloved to nourish the infant heart and not keep him in a state of dissolution. He has become speechless in this dry mood and asks to be given wine to relieve himself.
“Sweetest Love, I do not go” By John Donne
1) The poem is written by John Donne and is about a lover saying goodbye to his sweetest love.
2) The lover says he is not leaving because he is tired of his love or thinks he can find a better love elsewhere.
3) He says that since they must eventually part, it is best to use "feigned deaths" or pretend to die as a way to practice their final goodbye.
Alexander pope and essay on criticism
This document provides an overview of the English poet Alexander Pope, including a brief biography and details about his major works. It focuses on discussing the general principles of good criticism and poetry that Pope outlines in his Essay on Criticism. The principles emphasize that nature should be the source and test of all art, and that art should work without show or pomp by informing and sustaining its subject like the soul animates the body.
Erotokritos
Erotokritos tells Aretousa that her father has exiled him from their land and given him only four more days to stay. He is distraught at the thought of being separated from her and living in exile without her. He knows that Aretousa's father will soon arrange for her to marry a nobleman, and that she cannot resist her family's wishes. Erotokritos asks only one favor - that when she becomes engaged and married, she sighs deeply and lets a tear drop while saying "Poor Erotokritos, what I promised you I forgot, what you wanted exists no more".

- 19. I understood his torments; With just a smile, a single glance, I could have made him well, And yet I took no pity on him. He suffered for a long, long time, In pain and deep sorrow; And finally he died, poor soul. Oh, Lord, oh, heavenly Father! Hear my sinful prayer . . . Behold, how my soul is in pain.
