The range of beauty never ends, above,

Below, around the sky and on the sheen

Of water, high like highest manly love,

Like Christ’s and God the Father’s—in between

Them hovering everywhere the Holy Ghost’s,

In every particle of space, vast times,

In sub-atomic muons and the hosts

Of angels and archangels, heaven’s chimes

Reverberating in eternity,

In echoes of the earliest of light

And start and meaning of supernity,

Eternity with lightning but no night.

  The darkness of some lower clouds is crushed

    By luminosity where meaning rushed.
