From "The Gift"poems by Hafiz.
Translation by Daniel Ladinsky.
Doing some pen work with Hafiz.
I do some pencil and pen work sometimes.
This is obviously, not done; but I like the Sun.
Hafiz poetry is often very visual.
The long winged flying Diamond,is from a memory
I have of a giant moth that flew into my tent
when I went camping in Wyoming.
It was about a yard long bluish gray
with round maroon colored
circles at the beginning of each wing.
It really was shaped like that.
For a moth to be that big,
I would have guessed
that it would have
more of a delta
shape.
Anyway, I thought that I would incorporate it into the design.
Hafiz has great poetry, I'm thoroughly enjoying it.
