Obligatto for Poets

 If in all your life,
  You create one phrase
    That, some centuries hence,
      Still is shorthand for a
        Kind of beauty, a touch
          Of love, an instant of peace,
            The moment of illumination that
              Every soul knows and desires,
 Then you will have changed the world more
   Than any builder of monuments,
     Any slayer of tyrants,
       Or any prattler of the madness
         We so mistake for sanity.
