To Lillian Massey Treble

Topics: classic

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.
