loveallhands blog ~ family

family will always be important to me
not only my genetic family, the universal family
this photo was taken on february 22, 1958
the day my beautiful parents married
they are both artisans & eye love hanging out with them
in this photo, my ma's sister and their parents to her left
& my dad's brother and their parents to his right
eye come from a lineage of artisans
& am very grateful to have this gift & to share it with the world
rumi is one of the most influential persian poets of the 13th century
& this poem is one of my favourites
in your light i learn how to love
in your beauty how to make poems
u dance inside my chest where noone sees u
but sometimes i do
and that sight becomes this art
