Poems
This volume consists of all poems in English including sonnets, lyrical poems, narrative poems, and metrical experiments in various forms. All such poems published by Sri Aurobindo during his lifetime are included here, as well as poems found among his manuscripts after his passing. Sri Aurobindo worked on these poems over the course of seven decades. The first one was published in 1883 when he was ten; a number of poems were written or revised more than sixty years later, in the late 1940s.
THEME/S
Cry of the ocean's surges, the long hexameter rolling Covers my spirit as tides roll over rapturous shores. Foam on its tops the pentameter curls to its cadenced closing, Two high waves, then a hush swoons on the ear in its fall.
