TWO POEMS

1.

Fragments of a plan concealed from Mind

Whose glimpses see a part as whole and sum,

Come wandering through groves of thought in silent

Rays as sunlight sheds through quivering leaves

Its miracle of fire-laugh and the lightning

Of its pure and fearless self-sustaining

Majesty of truth.

2.

In a limbo pregnant with the seed of soul

I wait to hear Thy silent steps.

A symbiosis I of lofty aims

And dull desires downward dragging,

Each at war within this house of breath.

Calm and chaos, surge and silence

Battle on in bitter clash

And somehow standing back I watch

With naked joy and smile at Thee.
