212. WHY DO I CRY?
Why do I cry?  Father, to make You smile.
Why do I smile?
  Father, to make You cry.
Why do I make You smile?
  Father, because Your Smile
    Is my soul-depth.
Why do I make You cry?
  Father, because Your Cry
    Is my heart-height.
“Daughter, My daughter,
  I bless you with My Gratitude-strength
    And My Perfection-length.”
Sri Chinmoy, Europe-Blossoms, Aum Press, Puerto Rico, 1974
