Forever at His Side to Walk

G. Walker

Forever at his side to walk

The smaller of the two,

Brain of his brain,

Blood of his blood,

Two lives, one Being, now.

Forever of his fate to taste,

If grief the largest part,

If joy, to put my piece away

For that belovéd heart.

All life to know each other—

Whom we can never learn,

And by and by a change

Called "Heaven"—

Rapt neighborhood of men

Just finding out what

Puzzled us

Without the lexicon!
