    It's amazing to me that a womans poetry was held as sacred - in the 14th century much less preserved!

    The following is my favorite:

    I will weep and weep for you, O Mind; (
    my Soul)
    The world hath caught you in its spell.
    Though you cling to them with the anchor of steel,
    Not even the shadow of the things you love
    Will go with you when you are dead.
    Why then have you forgot your own true Self ?

    Her words are holy to me - as if a part of me knew they would reach out to me in this lifetime.

    Lalla, silly girl (the one you posted above)...
    I know - I just recently discovered Lalla was female... amazing - makes her poetry even more meaningful to me.
