PRESENCE by WINIFRED LUCAS

First Line: THERE'S LESS IN ACTUAL LIFE THAN SEEMS
Last Line: CAN SIGHT OR TOUCH DELIVER THEE.
Subject(s): LIFE;

THERE'S less in actual life than seems.
Thee, present to my sight to-day,
I follow with the eyes of dreams,
And into shadow chase away;
For rarely, rarely, unto me
Can sight or touch deliver thee.
