Our Home: A Wandering Dervish
by Ananta Kumar Giri © 2015
Our home
Is for friends
We have a big house
We are only two
When friends come
Our home becomes alive
We have a fire site ceremony
A jajnja
On the first Saturday of every month
We take leave on Friday
And start cooking for our friends
We eat, pray and study together
We grow as Bahais
We grow in faith
And build communities
Friendship and spirituality
Make us and our homes alive
Our home is for Dervish
The humble wandering singers of the Divine
Our home becomes a symphony
We become Erfan[1]
Life Divine
[1] Erfan means knowing gnosis in Arabic/Persian/Urdu
