With gentle touch and tender care,
Nor count the years, and you shall
mark
Bright silver threads among the dark.

You Il think of this again some day.
Some day shall not be as now
Your soft hand rove above my brow,
| shall not slight your bright command,
Nor draw those long braids through
my hand.
| snail be silent and obey,
And you will not laugh that day.
But when the tears are falling hot
UPON the lips that answer not,
You'll take from this some treasured
tress,
And leave the rest to silentness.
Remember that l used to say,
You'll think of this again some day.
