The Sounding-Board

Sankara Krishna Chettur

Make purer, deeper, my quiet heart, O Lord,
To know the whole of Life's significance:
This interplay of Time and Circumstance
Is Thy Eternity's quick sounding-board
To human souls, whose folded depths afford
Not only Joy's pure-passioned utterance
Of music swooning to a perfect trance,
But even the sobs of Grief, by Love implored . . .
From the quiescent cithar of my Faith,
If the weak notes I yield unto Thy stress
Merge singing flowers in moan of falling leaves,
The ultimate glory in all hideousness
Shall sister Beauty: and even changing Death
Gleam with the gold of Thy love-garnered sheaves.
