To the Heights-XXII
My eyes have followed the lines of thy beauty,
The winging curves of grace that embody thee-
In a delight that was gathered to its core of utmost intensity,
To its height of supreme exquisiteness. . . . . .
A light bathed them, a glory suffused them slowly -
A clear and vast vision entered,
I stood face to face with the Truth-
And the scales of Ignorance fell away!
The enraptured contemplation of thy embodiment
Quieted and soothed the heat and turmoil
Of my feverish hungers
That had rushed so long incontinent towards a myriad mirages-
My desire has found its one haven of rest,
An unspeakable tranquillity holds my mind and heart, An utter purity nestles me!
My ears have drunk thy voice-
Its ringing sweetness filters through the depths of my being,
And it awakens crystal listenings that mirror and capture
The mother-harmony of immemorial spheres,
Thy rhythm divine that graces and moulds my life.
My hands have touched the roses of thy feet-
The very soul of fragrance has passed into the substance
Of my transmuted earth. . . . ..
This body has grown sheer into thee as if it were thy own limb!
October 3, 1933
