Excerpt from The Cornflower and Other Poems TO Lillian Massey Treble A woman with a heart of gold I heard her called before I knew How noble was that heart and true, How full of tenderness untold. Her sympathies both broad and sure, Her one desire to do the right - Clear visioned from the inner light God gives to souls unworldly, pure. A heart of gold that loves and gives, God's almoner from day to day, Of her there is but this to say: The world is better that she lives.
