At Her Feet - Birthday 7/29/72

I entered the room and saw Her in the chair

And moved to Her with supplicating hands.

Time disappeared, I felt in that puissant air

A vastness as on heaven's borderlands.

As I knelt and placed my forehead on her feet

My small concerns and burdened cares released

In an endless moment her wondrous smile to meet,

And feel Her love as all my thinking ceased.

My soul looked out from behind its protecting veil

And in the flame of Her penetrating gaze

It knew a timeless truth that would prevail,

Her truth upon creation to emblaze.

As I rose to leave She said: "Look at your card!"

And there in Her hand the signal word, Narad.
