Poems by Themis

Alchemy

All my being turns to music

When I think of Thee;

Within each nerve-stream flows the honey

Of Thy felicity.

When I contemplate Thy being,

My mind's a glow of light;

Silence widens to the spheres,

I am gathered to Thy sight.

My heart I fling within Thy heart;

Strange beauty breaks above;

Beneath, around me, everything

Grows lovely with Thy love!
