Poem by Menella Bute Smedley A Remembrance Other thoughts have parted me From thy tender memory; Spaces like a cloudy sea Lie between mine eyes and thee. Buried sunsets heave and glow Where I would but must not go; Purple storm and golden veil Make the lovely distance pale. O! I want, across the cloud, Once to hear thee speak aloud; Not with those faint tones that seem Like a summons in a dream; Not with those faint tones that fleet Daily by me in the street, Ceasing but to sound again, While I turn my head in vain. One vast moment, to content Hunger of my banishment; One strong clasp, and then I know I could bear to let thee go!
