From the back of the card:

"I cannot tell why there should come to me
A thought of some one miles and years away.
In swift insistence on the memory,
Unless there be a need that I should pray.

Old friends are far away; we seldom meet
To talk of Christ or changes day by day,
Of pain or pleasure, triumph or defeat,
Or special reasons why 'tis time to pray..."
