What Reply.


What reply
If We ask the gardenerwhy
Buds Of promise sometimes de-
Yielding up their sweet perfume,
Ere they burst to beauteous bloom,
Drinking in no life from dews.
Taking on no roseate hues,
Shrinking from the mornings sun,
Fading, dropping, one by one
And, shrOuded In their petals green,
They drop to earth, no more are seen.
What reply
If we ask the gardener why
Buds Of promise sometimes diet
What reply
If we ask the Father why
Our fair flower thus should die
Yielding up a life so sweet,
where the brook and river meet"
Why, our hearts in anguish cry,
Why should this pure earth-bud diet
Ere we ask the answers given,
Borne on wings to earth from heaven,
And In the message thus we read
-'Ofsuch flowers my Lord hath need"
Sweet reply
When we ask our Father why
Loved ones thus so soon should die.

Yes, death is at the bottom of the cup,
And every one that lives must drink Ii up;
And yet between the sparkle at the top
And the black lees where turks that bitter drop
There swims enough good liquor. Heaven knows,
To ease our hearts OF all our other woes
The bubbles rise in sunshine at the brim;
That drop below is very far and dim;
The quick fumes spread and shape Us such
bright dreams
That in the glad delirium IL seems
AS though by some defr sleight, IL so we willed.
That drop untasted might be somehow spilled.
