    بشارة الخوري
    “بلغوها إذا أتيتم حماها
    أنني مت في الغرام فداها
    واذكروني لها بكل جميل
    فعساها تبكي علي عساها
    واصحبوها لتربتي ، فعظامي
    تشتهي أن تدوسها قدماها
    ***
    لم يشقني يوم القيامة ، لولا
    أملي أنني هناك أراها
    ولو أن النعيم كان جزائي
    في جهادي والنار كانت جزاها :
    لأتيت الإله زحفاً ، وعفرت
    جبيني كي أستميل الإلها
    وملأت السماء شكوى غرامي
    فشغلت الأبرار عن تقواها
    ومشى الحب في الملائك ، حتى
    خاف جبريل منهم عقابا
    ***
    قلت : يا رب ، أي ذنب جنته
    أي ذنب لقد ظلمت صباها
    أنت ذوبت في محاجرها السحر
    ورصعت باللاآلئ فاها
    أنت عسلت ثغرها فقلوب الناس
    نحل أكمامها شفتاها
    أنت من لحظها شهرت حساماً
    فبراء من الدماء يداها
    ***
    رحمة رب ، لست أسأل عدلاً ،
    رب خذني إن أخطأت بخطاها
    دع سليمى تكون حيث تراني
    أو فدعني أكون حيث أراها”

    Bruce Lee
    “Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way around or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves.

    Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.”
