TIRED MOTHERS.

A LITTLE elbow leans upon your knee,
four tIri d knee that has SO much to bear;
a child's de;gr eyes are looking lovingly
From underneath thatch of tangled hair.
Perhaps you do not heed the velvet touch
OF warm, moist fingers holding yours SO tight
You do not prize this blessing overmuch;
You almost are too tired to pray tonight.
But it is blessednessl A year ago
! did not see it as do to-day
We are all sojd dull and thankless, and too slow
To catch the sunshine till it slips way
And now 1t seems surprising strange to me
That, whielI wore the badge OF motherhood
did not kiss more oft and tenderlv
The little Child that brought me only good
And if, some3night, when you sit do wa 10 rest
&aeu miss the elbow from your tired knee
THIS restless curly head from OF your breast,
his lispinE tongue that chatters constantly;
If from yeur 9wn tie dimpled hands had slipped
And ne er would nestle in your palm again;
II the white feet into their grave had tripped
could not blame you for your heart ache then
l wonder so hat mothers ever fret
at little children cliBging TO their gown;
Or that he iGs tprints, when the days are wet
Are ever black enough 10 make them frowL.
II could fina little muddy boot,
Qrcap, cor Jacket on my chamber floor;
IL could KISS a rosy, restless loot,
AND hear Itpatter IN my house once more;
If could mehd a broken cart to-day,
To-morrOw make n Kite to reach the sky
There is no woman in God 8 world could say
She WAS more blissfuily content than
But ah! the tiainty pillow next my own
Is never rufnpledsbya a shiuiRg head:
My singing bsrdling fronfits nest has flown;
The little boy used to kiss is deadi
