Afterthought, from Afternoon at a Parsonage (Unabridged): optional

Have you ever felt close to someone, yet a world apart? In "Afterthought," the epilogue to Jean Ingelow's classic poem "Afternoon at a Parsonage," we explore this curious paradox. Imagine islands, side-by-side, yet forever separated by the vast ocean. Or stars, twinkling brightly, yet unreachable in the endless night sky. "Afterthought" uses these vivid metaphors to delve into the complexities of human connection. Is true intimacy possible, or are we all destined to remain solitary souls, yearning for a bridge that may never be built? Lend your ears to Ingelow's lyrical verses and discover the poignant beauty of connection, both near and far.
