#ColemanBarks, the famed Rumi translator, has passed away into the Invisible.
I don’t think anyone has done more to bring so many people to #Rumi’ s teachings.
There will be discussion of the accuracy of Coleman’s versions soon enough. For now let us simply honor and mourn a poet and a seeker.

A great mutual embrace is always happening
between the eternal and what dies
between essence and accident.
The sport has different rules
in every case, but it’s basically
the same, and remember:
the way you make love is the way
God will be with you.

There is a light seed grain inside.
You fill it with yourself, or it dies.

Love is not condescension, never that,
nor books, nor any marking on paper,
nor what people say of each other.
Love is a tree
with branches reaching into eternity
and roots set deep in eternity,
and no trunk.
