Stars Of Heaven


AN innite silence belts my view

With its myriad stars of gold:

The magic beauty of a new

Splendour, magic-scrolled.


From caves of a fathomless abyss

One by one they arise

Burdened with secret memories

Of a lost paradise.


Across a drowsy circle of clouds

And through deep chasms of time

They come, tearing the slumber shrouds

Like peals of a soul-heard chime.


In their heaven-lustrous rhythm I nd

Wonders of a world of Light,

Bringing on the earth dim-outlined

The beauty of the Innite.
