Oh Fairest Face Beneath the Driven Snow <br /> <br /> Oh fairtest face beneath the driven snow<br /> Lift now thine eyes to my enquiring gaze<br /> For I have come from fields afar for one last time<br /> To visit with you midst the fog strewn haze<br /> <br /> I feel your hand is reaching to me now<br /> From neath the grave for one last pleading favour<br /> While mine is down there touching your fair brow<br /> A memoried meeting for one last time to savour <br /> <br /> I feel you are not left alone my Love<br /> With kindred all about you strewn<br /> But please remember the one who soldiers on<br /> Leaving part of me with you in the stone cold tomb<br /> <br /> Tomorrow I will then depart this place<br /> And return to my newly appointed home<br /> A place so very far away from here<br /> From whence I never more will roam<br /> <br /> My life has taken me on another path<br /> With family new and ones I also adore<br /> But never will I forget my first youthful romance<br /> Though you be far away on heaven's shore<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> John Cornick<br /> Halifax, Nova Scotia<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />   Submitted By: John Cornick
