"Out Of Reach?"

Title:     "Out Of Reach?"
Author: James Whitcomb Riley [More Titles by Riley]

You think them "out of reach," your dead?
Nay, by my own dead, I deny
Your "out of reach."--Be comforted:
'Tis not so far to die.

O by their dear remembered smiles
And outheld hands and welcoming speech,
They wait for us, thousands of miles
This side of "out-of-reach."

[The end]
James Whitcomb Riley's poem: "Out Of Reach?"
