Explore "To a Far Distant Friend" by Ida Lee on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
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.
