AFTER ALL

The apples are ripe In the orchard.
The work Of the resper is done,
And the goldenlands redden,
ln the blood Of the dying sun.
At the cottage door the grandsire
Sits pale in his easy chair,
While the gentle wind of twilight.
Plays with his silver hair.
woman Is knesling beside him,
A fair, young head is prest,
In the first Wild passion # sorrow,
Against his aged breast.
And far from over the distance
The falteriDg echoes come
OF the flying blast Of trumpet,
And the rafting roll Of drum.
And the grand.ire speaks In a whisper,-
"The end no man can see;
But we give him TO his country,
And We give our prayers to thee :"
The violets star the meadows,
The rose buds fringe the door,
And over the grassy orchard.
The pink-white blossoms pour.
But the grandsires chair ia empty,
The cottage is dark and STILL
There's nsmeiess grave in the battle field.
And new one under the hill.
And pailid, fearless woman
by the cold hearth sits alone,
And the old clock in the corner,
Ticks on With steady drone.
