Ariadne’s Thread

A message to the one whose life will be revived by a pen:
You are from me, and I from you—
No matter how our images differ,
In the forest of mirrors,
a dream bears witness to us then.
And peace be upon your luminous letters,
resting among the leaves
of Sufi basil,
where your imagination is drawn
by Ariadne’s thread
toward the land
where all wild thoughts bloom:
Your morning
is an inspired dewdrop dawn.
