This poem was written by a soldier stationed in Okinawa, Japan. It is a great Christmas poem that everyone should listen too this Christmas. I made this slide show and I wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a happy New year.
After posting the "No More Milk" poem with Jimmy Stewart on Johnny Carson, people were asking to see the "Bo" poem. This is it. (Note: It has been brought to my attention the proper spelling for Bo is actually Beau and the title has been duly corrected. Thanks all :)

Grandaddy - Jed's Other Poem (Beautiful Ground) musicvideo by Stewart, 2005 "Programmed in Applesoft II on a 1979 Apple ][+ with 48K of RAM. Seriously." www.stewdio.org/jed/ www.grandaddylandscape.com
Rumi's poems elegantly and consistently touch our inner being and inspire us to go beyond our limitations towards the Divine. The music: The credits do appear at the end of this video, but it is by the composer, Eleni Karaindrou, and is the theme music called "Eternity and a Day" from the movie, Aggelopoulos. A note on the music: This entire video was constructed in silence-only the poem and the images were put together without my knowing what music would be the right one. The music is so important to the interpretation of these poems. Rather than reading them, the music is my voice. When I 'laid' this beautiful piece of music over the video it fit perfectly. Few edits were made to accomodate the images to fit the music. They seem to be made for each other. Note for those who overlook the message and want to 'claim' Rumi as their own (country, nationality, language) they've missed the point completely and these comments will be deleted.

This video is on the theme of divine love, unity, oneness and the similarity of nations / religions. My only message,is that we all are ONE, but have different ways to express the VERY same feeling of longing for finding the divine within and melting with IT. My purpose in making this video was to share the feeling of UNITY and to show how similar we are. God is separate from nothing and nothing is separate from God. We are all ONE. Nothing else matters. God loves every human being who ever lived, lives now, or ever will live. Images are from various artists, found by google search. The texts in the clip are written by me, Aida. The music is from the album tittled "Gift Of Love Vol.1". The Artist is Deepak Chopra. The track name is "Agony And Ecstasy Of Divine Discontent". The poem is by Rumi, recited by Madonna. The singer and the Music are Iranian. ~~~~~~~ Please ENJOY :)) ______________ After almost 500 comments some people are still arguing and insulting each other. I have no choice but disabling comments on this video to somehow stop this meaningless discussion. Peace starts within each one of us, when we have inner peace, we can be at peace with those around us. You become what you believe, not what you wish or want, but what you TRULY believe. Never forget that our beliefs can move us forward in life, or they can hold us back. The choice is yours. * * *

Shikwah (The Complaint) by Allama Iqbal علامہ اقبال[Part 1]. This famous Urdu poem is written in 1911 at Lahore. Here Iqbal is complaining to Allah about the condition of Muslims. He was then a Professor of Philosophy at Government College, Lahore. A year later he wrote Jawab-e-Shikwah (Response to the Complaint). Shikwa (شکوہ) is from Bang-i-Dara [1924], Iqbal's first philosophical poetry book in Urdu. I dedicate this work to Iqbal, the great poet-philosopher of Islam.

A poem... If you were a beautiful flower I would be a raindrop to touch you If you were a little bird I would be a tree branch to hold you If you were a bright star I would be a planet to round around you If you were a beautiful song I would be a guitar to play you If you were a boundless sea I would be a ship to sail across you If you were a great mountain I would be snow to cover you If you were a white cloud I would be wind to dance with you If you were a burning fire I would be a piece of wood to burn with you If you were an eternal dream I would sleep forever to have you If you looked at my eyes once again I would never close them not to lose you...
