Nov. 1999
At the edge of the inner vision's arc I caught A dancer from another space and time Whose feet descending earthward softly wrought The rhythmed joy of deity sublime.
In a wondrous cloak enveloping our earth Compassionately She sang of other spheres And the coming of a superhuman birth, Encouraging cessation of our fears.
One cannot know the force descending there, Supporting bodies resonant with Her call, The magnitude of light in Auroville's air And Her summoning touch upon the sleeping soul.
Her cloudless smile unveiled the inner sun And Soul shot forth leaving the Person behind To follow in its wake, the future won By the body of the Avatar affined.
By his compassionate infinity He deals with the famous and the infamous Equal applicants to divinity And equal cosharers of nothingness.
So I chant the hymnic lines of stellar light And dance to descending rhythms from the spheres To release the dove to start its upward flight And plant my feet to front the golden years.
