Poems
THEME/S
In cloud-suspense the faint breeze died;
A deep glow spread on every side:
The firmamental hush came down,
A mirrored soul of aureate brown
Subduing each form-shade to one
Pervasive ecstasy of sun.
No leaf-stir and no flitting mood
Profaned the holy quietude
In which the strange responding earth
Travailed with some miraculous birth—
As though a presence richly far,
Flowering like a vague gold star,
Trembled within her undefiled
Womb-vision—a shadowless spirit-child
Whose splendour of futurity
Would celebrate in mortally
The secret hour when, on the dazzled clay,
Like an eternal lover silence lay.
