Comments on: Ummi Sinan – The Rose http://www.poetry-chaikhana.com/blog/2012/07/18/ummi-sinan-the-rose-2/ Sacred Poetry from Around the World Sat, 18 May 2013 21:50:05 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.3 By: Shuba http://www.poetry-chaikhana.com/blog/2012/07/18/ummi-sinan-the-rose-2/#comment-73903 Shuba Tue, 24 Jul 2012 14:48:39 +0000 http://www.poetry-chaikhana.com/blog/?p=2116#comment-73903 I absolutely love this poem - and I had no idea the rose stood for so much. Your words are beautiful, especially, 'The rose unfolds in a gentle circling that invites one to yield inward. The rose is a symbol of lovers and of union. The rose resonates strongly with the gently awakened heart.'. I also wanted to say that your book is an inspiration. It moved me to publish my own words through my book titled 'the year of the rose: reflections of a new mother and lessons in mindfulness and loving-kindness' - perhaps why this poem speaks so much to me. Blessings, and wishing you beauty and joy, Shuba I absolutely love this poem – and I had no idea the rose stood for so much.

Poets like Hafiz, Molana and Saadi in my country Iran reflects the same picture as Ummi Sinan does. I would like to learn more about Ummi Sinan. Can you give me some leads? Thanks Nasser Ivan,
