To the Heights-XLIII
The child has eyes for nothing else than its mother,
Its entire bound of vision is rounded in by the radiant presence of its beloved.
It cannot but be so, for where does the Mother abide?
-Within its own eyes!
Fearsome figures appear now and then-
A night rife with dark and dangerous bodings,
A whole sky of cloud scowling and rumbling-
The child sees the mother at game and laughs-all disappear:
The beaming smile of the adored one alone is there!
All beauties-the rising morn, the reposing eve, the bloom
on the rose, the light of the awakening soul in the human face-
All, all are radiances from the sparkle of her eyes,
The eyes that hide within the eyes of the child.
The child looks at itself, its own person-
Lo, itself has become the mother,
And takes in its arms the entire world
And fondles it as its child
With the passionate love of innocence.
October 18, 1936
