The Breeze at Dawn by the poet Rumi The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you. Don't go back to sleep. You must ask for what you really want. Don't go back to sleep. People are going back and forth across the dorsal where the two worlds touch. The door is round and open. Don't go back to sleep. How are you waking up? What are you noticing?
