STEPS OF ROSE by DHAN GOPAL MUKERJI

Last Line: And drink from its starry rim
Subject(s): HEAVEN;

Steps of rose
On rosier steps;
Thus, evening
Builds her staircase
Between sunset
And the infinite roof of space.
So our fancies
May fold their wings,
And walk on gleams
Of unending purple and pink,
Up to the blue pool . . .
And drink from its starry rim
