Kahlil Gibran - Selected Verses for Meditation - Mystical Poetry

[Newest Reality]

Lebanon-born writer and artist Kahlil Gibran (1883 – 1931) became known for his mystical Arabic and English works, most notably the 1923 publication, 'The Prophet.' Kahlil Gibran moved to the United States in 1895 and was exposed to Boston's artistic community. Initially showing promise as an artist, he also began writing newspaper columns and books in Arabic, drawing attention for his prose poems. After moving to New York City, Gibran began writing books in English. The popularity of The Prophet endured well after the author's death in 1931, making him the third-best-selling poet of all time.

1. The Prophet is an all time great

book. I read it about 40 years ago and still think about it. Thanks for the reminder.

I, too, read it long ago and was very moved and inspired.

You're welcome.
