First Line: Around us lies a world invisible
Last Line: And hopes encompassed by the tide of tears.
Alternate Author Name(s): Father Tabb
Subject(s): Life
Around us lies a world invisible,
With isles of dreams and many a continent
Of thought and isthmus fancy, where we dwell
Each as a lonely wanderer intent
Upon his vision, finding each his fears
And hopes encompassed by the tide of tears.
