snowy poetry moment...
In truth, I led my prayer leader in prayer (from The Poem of the Sufi Way)

By Umar Ibn al-Farid, (1181 - 1235)
English version by Th. Emil Homerin

In truth, I led my prayer leader in prayer
with all of humanity behind me;
wherever I turned
was my way,

And my eye saw her before me
in my prayer,
my heart witnessing me
leading all my leaders.

It is no wonder
the prayer leader prayed toward me
since she had settled in my heart
as niche of my prayer niche.

All six directions faced me
with all there was
of piety and pilgrimage
both great and small.

To her I prayed my prayers
at Abraham's Station,
and I witnessed in them
her prayer to me,

Both of us one worshipper
bowing to his reality
in union
in every prostration.

For no one prayed to me but I
nor were my prayers performed
to other than me
in each genuflection.

How long must I be brother to the veil?
I have rent it,
and its clasps were loosened
in the bond of my pledge!
