Elucidations of a Primal Being
CANTOS I (Tract I)
The woods were stirring,and the stars twinkling,
the wind whispering a thousand new breezes;
....if a sound came, it came with smiles -----
and if it spoke it would call me friend....
and I would call it mother, or brother
or sister,
or God?
Dare I say 'God' for such a simple thing? ----
But what I feel is as real as any science....
something behind the green curtain;
.... Something, under the speck of flower shoots,
that bloom as ornate as any chic-portrait
or seem to thrust higher than man's great
skyscrapers, speckled anew each spring,
for mine eyes,
and yours
and the world's
Dare I say 'God?'
(Who Reveals)
