Classic poem

Fragment: 'Is It That in Some Brighter Sphere'

by Percy Bysshe Shelley

Is it that in some brighter sphere

We part from friends we meet with here?

Or do we see the Future pass

Over the Present's dusky glass?

Or what is that that makes us seem

To patch up fragments of a dream,

Part of which comes true, and part

Beats and trembles in the heart?
