Poems on Rumi : The Whirling Heart, the Fire of Love, and the Silence Beyond Words
Overview
Some books are read. Others are entered. This one turns you.
In Poems on Rumi: The Whirling Heart, the Fire of Love, and the Silence Beyond Words, love is not a metaphor-it is a force. These poems do not explain Rumi; they move as he moved, burn as he burned, and fall silent where language can no longer follow.
Written in the spirit of devotion rather than commentary, this collection traces the inner arc of the seeker: longing, rupture, intoxication, surrender, and finally, stillness. Each poem stands alone, yet together they form a slow whirling-drawing the reader inward, away from noise, toward the simple and devastating clarity of love.
These are not poems about perfection or spiritual achievement. They are poems about being undone. About losing the self carefully, joyfully, completely. About discovering that what you were searching for has always been listening.
This book is for readers who:
Feel drawn to Rumi's spirit but want poetry that breathes rather than explains
Seek contemplative writing rooted in love, silence, and inner transformation
Use poetry as a doorway to stillness, prayer, or meditation
Long for language that dissolves rather than instructs
Open anywhere. Read slowly. Let the poems turn you until something quiet and true begins to listen back.
About the Author
Flamma Poetica Publishing in collaboration with Elliot James Marlowe
Elliot James Marlowe is an American poet and former hospice chaplain whose work explores love, surrender, and the sacred thresholds of silence. His writing arises from years of listening-at bedsides, in quiet rooms, and within the turning heart itself-where language learns humility and presence becomes prayer.
