Life-Line

Flute
Today’s Life-Line is:

I am

A hole in a flute

That the Christ’s breath moves through—

Listen to this

Music.

I am the concert

From the mouth of every

Creature

Singing with the myriad

Chords.

“A Hole in a Flute” by Hafiz
from The Gift: Poems By Hafiz
Translations by Daniel Ladinsky
