A solemn thing it was I said

A solemn thing - it was - I said -
A Woman - white - to be -
And wear - if God should count me fit -
Her blameless mystery -

A timid thing - to drop a life
Into the
purple
mystic well -
Too plummetless - that it
return
come back -
Eternity - until -

I pondered how the bliss would look -
And would it feel as big -
When I could take it in my hand -
Asglimmering hovering - seen - through fog -

And then - the size of this "small" life -
The Sages - call it small -
Swelled - like Horizons - in my
vest
breast -
And I sneered - softly - "small"!
