The Homecoming.

When we were newly married and I'd
hasten to our nest,
She'd meet me at the door and lean her
head against my vest
And shy, before inside the house I'd half
chance to get:
You have forgotten something, dear;
you haven't kissed ME yet!'
Now we've been welded quite while
but still she's there to greet
Me, coming from the storm, but oh! 1t
doesn't seem so sweet.
She says, the while see her glance my
homely feet peruse-
you huve forgotten something, dear; 81
back and wipe your shoes"
