One God,One Truth

Would you think it odd if Hafiz said,
"I am in love with every church 
And mosque 
And temple 
And any kind of shrine
 
Because I know it is there 
That people say the different names 
Of the One God."
 
Would you tell your friends 
I was a bit strange if I admitted
 
I am indeed in love with every mind 
And heart and body.
 
O I am sincerely 
Plumb crazy 
About your every thought and yearning 
And limb
 
Because, my dear, 
I know 
That it is through these
That you search for Him
Hafiz
