Poems (Hazlett-Bevis)/Heart to Heart

by Sophia Courtoulde Hazlett-Bevis

Heart to Heart.

Some day we shall stand, you and I,
 In fairer lands I trow,
And clasping hands 'neath bluer sky,
 We then shall surely know
Why the gulf between us yawned so wide
 Why 'twas given us here to part.
And as the golden gate swings soft aside,
 Oh, shall we not stand heart to heart?
