VOYAGER'S SONG

(Suggested by Hodgson's "The Mystery")

What if I coasted near the shoreOf ultimate utter sleep—You were the tide that swung me backInto the living deep.
I did not heed what all the worldHeld in its proud embrace;But it was life to hear you speak,And heaven to see your face.
Feb. 11, 1919
