THE WALL - by Jessie Belle Rittenhouse

THE  WALL by Jessie Belle Rittenhouse     Now we two are heart to heart,    O most dear of all,    Who were held so long apart    By the sundering wall.     But so suddenly it fell.    At the final touch,    We are dazed and cannot tell    If we hope too much.     We would wait to know the sum    Of our joy and pain    But what if shadowy hands should come    And build the wall again ?
