On Poetry
THEME/S
A kiss will break the quiet whole
Of your white soul;
Shape from the silver of that poise
A magic voice,
The lustre of a skyward call—
No flickering grace, but all
Your spirit's gathered virgin light
One death-oblivious height
Of shadowless body rapture-crowned—
A face of reverie caught beyond
Our time-throbs to strange heavens afar....
O build from hush of star on star
That shining statued secrecy
Of love's divinity!
Sri Aurobindo's Comment
"Very fine throughout—both the thought and expression very felicitous and intuitively right—exacacty expressive of the thing seen."
