Inspiration Poem by Aldous Huxley

Inspiration

Rating: 4.3


Noonday upon the Alpine meadows
Pours its avalanche of Light
And blazing flowers: the very shadows
Translucent are and bright.
It seems a glory that nought surpasses-
Passion of angels in form and hue-
When, lo! from the jewelled heaven of the grasses
Leaps a lightning of sudden blue.
Dimming the sun-drunk petals,
Bright even unto pain,
The grasshopper flashes, settles,
And then is quenched again.

The flash of lightning that blazes in and out of human vision like a heavenly dream, seems so small as a mere grasshopper, but give a great thirst quenching moment of purity to the soul, who sees.
