Less is ............MORE



Hafiz came over last night,
while you were napping...
We
 danced 
Under a big Mango tree.
As I was twirling ecstatically ,
He said,

"Crazy Boy!"
"SIMPLIFY!!!"

"Less is  MORE "!!!
"Less  Desire,
Less Worry,
Less  Attachment,
Less  Possessions"

MORE
Freedom,

MORE
Light,


MORE
LOVE !!!



As I spun around to Thank him...
Hafiz took a Ripe Mango 
And hit me,
right between the eyes...
Boom!
When I woke up this morning,
in the gentle rain
under that Old Mango Tree
Hafiz had already left,

He had left me 
sleeping soundly
in the cool mud,
covered in sweet mango juice...

One of his wild ducks was still
 nibbling nectar off of my left ear...
"Hey YOU Crazy Duck", I yelled
  "I need that Ear!"

As I rubbed the bruise between my eyes
I realized 
I had
Never 
Slept better....
