Be lost in the call - Rumi
2007/09/20,12:07

Lord, said David, since you do not need us,
why did you create these two worlds?

Reality replied: O prisoner of time,
I was a secret treasure of kindness and generosity,
and I wished this treasure to be known,
so I created a mirror: its shining face, the heart;
its darkened back, the world;
The back would please you if you've never seen the face

After many a number of days, I looked for poetry in internet and came across this beautiful verse by Rumi. Deeply meaningful, this poem is a lovely one that also stimulates thinking. Thanks to www.armory.com for the online version of the poem. You could read this entire poem and many others by Rumi in this site.
