• What Happens
  
  What happens when your soul
  Begins to awaken
  Your eyes
  And your heart
  And the cells of your body
  To the great Journey of Love?
  
  First there is wonderful laughter
  And probably precious tears
  
  And a hundred sweet promises
  And those heroic vows
  No one can ever keep.
  
  But still God is delighted and amused
  You once tried to be a saint.
  
  What happens when your soul
  Begins to awake in this world
  
  To our deep need to love
  And serve the Friend?
  
  O the Beloved
  Will send you
  One of His wonderful, wild companions -
  
  Like Hafiz.
