New Birth

 

Within the night of my earth-reverie,

White flame-blades swiftly cut the veils of gloom,

A soft cloud floats across the shining sea,

And the blue light of your Presence fills the room...

 

The voice of Love's redemption comes to me,

Bridging eternities of star-swept doom;

The power of your white birth sets me free

From vaulted rocks of death and Time's ghost tomb

 

Now only a fine blue tranquillity

Enwraps the child-soul in your mystic womb—

 Placenta of creation's memory,

An arabesque from Joy's exquisite loom.
