V58: Perhaps

PERHAPS, if we could see
The splendour of the land
To which our loved are called
from you and me,
WE’D UNDERSTAND.

PERHAPS, if you could hear
The welcome they receive
From old familiar voices –
all so dear –
WE WOULD NOT GRIEVE.

PERHAPS, if we could know
The reason why they went
We’d smile-and wipe away
the tears that flow,
WE’D WAIT CONTENT.
