Meditations: Master

A Poem

By Priti Ghosh

O Captain, O Master, what eternal debt we owe Thee
Thou who hast planted in our mire a fragment of Thee.
In Night’s absolute, there is yet a gleam and a shimmer 
Of brighter days without this suffocating siege.
O Master, we lack ways of worship and gratitude to Thee
Fall to old ways and lesser means..yet we ache for more.
Less and least, to wash Thy feet with our heart’s tears.
To adore the least of Thee with immeasurable worship and gratitude.
