Poems (Griffin)/Smile of Friendship



SMILE OF FRIENDSHIP.
AS the light on the quivering sea,
When stars look from above,
As a strain of minstrelsy,
Breathed from the lute of love,—
When stars look from above,
As a strain of minstrelsy,
Breathed from the lute of love,—
So falls upon the sorrowing heart
The smiles of friendship true;
And genial feelings quickly start,
And hope revives anew.
The smiles of friendship true;
And genial feelings quickly start,
And hope revives anew.
