TO A FAR DISTANT FRIEND.

Previous
Eyes that are true,
Shadowed with blue,
Speak her sweet mind:
Out of her face,
Calm in its grace,
Looks the spirit behind.
Swift ocean tide,
Steep mountain side,
Stand now between:
Yet will my heart,
Sacred, apart,
Treasure days that have been.
No sunlight plays
With the same rays
On her and me:
Time’s shortening wing
Troubles may bring,
Clouding Life’s restless sea.
Still I will pray
Her heavenward way
Thrice may be blest;
Angels to guide,
Walk by her side,
Love her ever the best.
