Robert Laurence Binyon - Parting And MeetingRobert Laurence Binyon - Parting And Meeting
Work rating: Low


When we are parted, the world ails, Life wants, the pulse of it falls slack; The wind stings, and the clouds roll black; Wishes fly far as absent sails; And in the mind old mournful tales Murmur, and toss an echo back. In all things fair is found some lack. Light cares grow heavy, and pleasure stales. But when from far in the thronged street Our eyes each other leap to find, O when at last our arms enwind, And on our lips our longings meet, The world glows new with each heart--beat, Love is come home, Life is enshrined.
