218. Hope
Hope, my pilot-star, hopeI have seen your face.
I have felt your heart.
Therefore
In ignorance-night
I shall no more grope.
Hope, my pilot-star, hope
You are humanity's peerless rope
For human souls to climb
God's Transcendental Height.
Sri Chinmoy, Three hundred sixty-five Father's Day prayers, Aum Press, Puerto Rico, 1974
