The Quest
For years I sought the Many in the
One,
I thought to find lost waves and broken rays,
The rainbow's faded colours in the sun--
The dawns and twilights of forgotten days.
But now I seek the One in every
form,
Scorning no vision that a dewdrop holds,
The gentle Light that shines behind the storm,
The Dream that many a twilight hour enfolds.
Eva Gore-Booth (1870-1926)
