The light of splendor shines in the middle of the night. Who can see it? A heart which has eyes and watches.
~ by Angelus Silesius
"The Tamil language is very precise,"
the Tamil poet said.
"There are seven different words
between the English words, 'bud' and 'flower.'"
One would have to live in attentive quiet,
live with the plant,
marveling at each subtle change
to create such a language.
Love creates such a language.
