Lovely verse

IN THE obituary column of the Observer last week I read the following beautiful verse:

Some time at eve when the tide is low,

I shall slip my moorings and sail away.

And greet the friends who have sailed before

O'er the unknown sea, to the unknown shore.

I wonder if any readers could tell me the origin and the writer of this poem.
