Poem by Audrey Vaughan

I sought him where the marble shone

and rang with singing echoes
to the hurrying prelates' feet

and found him not

I sought him where the golden glow
and painted heav'n-eyed saints adorn
the sleeping altars

and found him not

I sought him where all nature's
beauty burned

with autumn leaves afire
with death against the long blue sky

and found him not

I sought him down the stone sett streets
dull beneath the misty rain
which closed the surrounding hills

and found him not

I sought him in the eyes of strangers
bright with giving thoughts
and in the hearts of friends

but found him not

I sought him
him whom I loved
in ev'ry thing I loved
in my own heart's loving

but this night I found him not
I found him not

but still I sought him
this gurgling boy of joy
but where?

the dark sky all above
and round me
like a suffocating empty cloak
took time away
my thoughts away
my search away

and the peace of emptiness of self
opened the low brown door

and there his newness tiny lay

deep in the shriven hollow
of my heart
cradled there

I found him
