The Winds of Wonder

A Divine Proclamation

Thoughtful destiny had arranged their meeting,

Sunday in the afternoon at three-thirty;

Long did wait the well-designed staircase,

Built as it was at the start of Eternity.

Magic of Unknown’s divinity soon gathered

Elements found only in the solar fire;

Faggots now kindled in gold-orange will, —

Oh it convening the hour to claim earth’s desire!

And to announce came the silver winged winging down,

Across the amber verge, towards creation;

 Manifests now a new world in the Yogi’s “Yes”,

City of Dawn first born in that meditation.

Born is the Son of the Body, deathless and true, —

That’s the most yogic gift of their rendezvous.
