Poems
THEME/S
Space is the infinite of God's witness Self
Permitting the endless will of God that is time;
But still the twin near glories shine apart.
Beyond them burns a mingle of mysteries—
Divinity reaches every goal at once
And a boundless Eye draws into its living deeps
The distances of future and of past—
Time merged in space through a supracosmic fire.
Beyond even this intense totality
Is the freedom of an all-forge ting light:
No space, no time, no four-dimensional muse.
Yet the pure Being rapt in its own immense
Marks not the sovereign term. Outtopping each
Grade, dwells a lustre of absolute victory:
Three golden faces of a single bliss
In which the whole time-drama and space-sight—
With changing mood or mood unchangeable—
Are lost for ever yet for ever found:
The kindling cosmos, the fused flaming All
Blaze without break from a timeless spaceless glow—
Brahma outstretching omnipiesent life,
Vishnu upholding one omniscient truth,
Shiva sustaining both by omnipotent peace!
