The Baha'i's of Cincinnati
Poverty
God hath a people beneath the dome of glory,
whom He hideth in the clothing of radiant poverty.
This station is the dying from self and living in God.
Being poor in self and rich in the Desired One.
Now hast thou abandoned the drop of life
and come to the sea of the Life-Bestower.
Are my attachments to material concerns
preventing me from experiencing a more fulfilling way of life?
