A beautiful poem by Nizar Qabbani on this St. Valentine's Day, my wife's favorite holiday.
from "Poems"
Who are you
woman entering my life like a dagger
mild as the eyes of a rabbit
soft as the skin of a plum
pure as strings of jasmine
innocent as children's bibs
and devouring like words?
--Nizar Qabbani
