Poetry selections
He paid three visits to God
He paid three visits to God:    First time he went
    With a beggar’s humiliation.
    Second time he went
    With a seeker's humility.
    Third time he went
    With a lover’s oneness.
God questioned the beggar,
God smiled at the seeker,
God caught the lover.
