Δαφνη Ευτυχια Αρθουρος

"I want to see you.
 Know your voice.
 Recognize you when you first come 'round the corner.
 Sense your scent when I come into a room you've just left.
 Know the lift of your heel,
 The glide of your foot.
 Become familiar with the way you purse your lips
 Then let them part, just the slightest bit,
 When I lean in to your space and kiss you.
 
 I want to know the joy
 Of how you whisper
 'More'"
-- Jalal ad-Din Muhammad Rumi (b. 1207, d. 1273-12-17)

[I know I'm mixing things up a bit, quoting a Sufi on a Catholic holiday, but for the way mainstream culture thinks about St. Valentine's Day, this felt perfect.]
