At The Table.

Chicago Record Herald)
The years have sped since first led
You to the table. dear.
And you sat over there alone.
And l sat smiling here.
A year or two flew past and you
No longer sat alone;
A little one was in your arms,
Your darling and my own
And then another year or so,
And some one else was there,
And Willie sat near me, you know,
While Trottie claimed your care.
The years have sped since first led
You to the table, dear,
And you looked queenly at the foot,
And felt kingly here.
Today as look down at you
On either side | see
A row OF hungry little ones
All gazing up at me.
We've added leaves, one after one,
And you are far away
Aye, thrice as far, my dear, as on
That happy, happy day.
But though we sit so far apart
You there and up here
| Two rows of hearts from my fond heart
Stretch down TO you, my dear
| Thank God for every extra leaf
| The table holds today,
And may we never know the grief
| OF putting one away.
