From Out Of The Cosmos

From Out Of The Cosmos

From out of the
cosmos and the spherical harmony
of children's
dreams
deep
in love the
same sounds come, and they are
soothing as
sleep;
stride
of the monad
and slide of children's hearts
arace in
warmth
are
one in their
care-covering of gulfs beyond
leap. Cry of
child
and light of
the world are twin screams of a
consciousness
bom
of
the same blind
hub shaped in a wheel of winds,
ribs of new
suns.
my
child Adam
is strapped in a wild-wrought rim
spinning in
space,
yet
of twinship
with the Divine he knows nothing
but that he
loves.
