Work rating: Medium


In a strange town in a far land          They met amid a throng; They stared, they could not understand          How life was sudden song. As brown eyes looked in eyes of grey          Just for a moment`s space, Twin spirits met with sweet dismay                    In that strange place. And then the mob that swept them near          Reft them away again; Two hearts in all the world most dear          Knew puzzlement and pain. They barely brushed in passing by,          A wildered girl and boy, Who should have clasped with laughing cry,                    And wept for joy. But no, the crowd cleft them apart,          And she went East, he West; But there was havoc in his heart          And brooding in her breast. In a far land, in a strange town          Amid a mob they met; They stared, they passed . . . But O deep down,          Can they forget?
