Sonorous Thoughts



A little dolphin blind
How ever knows shapes and size
And finds its way through resounding waves
Without ears and eyes!
Thus in silence I hear You
In thunder and lightening fear You
O God! But for such sonorous thoughts
And the pen by which You taught
How could I ever get near You!
