Sanctify with Love

Soon daffodils will break the crust of earth

And crocus flower cheerful in the snow

And all these silent harbingers of birth

Will move the heart and everywhere I go

The eye arrest, enchant for my delight

The fragrant earth ablaze like a moving prayer

To displace the dark hegemony of night.

And I shall kneel at peace for in our care

Are gardens of a consciousness to build

Not yet descended to this mortal zone

But waiting till the ego soul is killed,

Desire dead, the inner vision grown

To encompass life and sanctify with love

Our labour to the One in whom we move.
