HEREAFTER by HELEN FIELD WATSON

First Line: THERE IS SO MUCH OF SORROW FOR US HERE
Last Line: BUT HAVE NO MEMORIES NOR FUTURE GOALS.
Subject(s): IMMORTALITY; LIFE;

There is so much of sorrow for us here
It seems but fit reward for all strong souls
That, if immortal, they should joy each hour
But have no memories nor future goals.
