LITTLE THINGS

A goodby kiss is a little thing,
With your hand on the door to 60,
But it takes the venom out OF the sting
OF athoughtless word or a cruel
fling,
That you made an hour ago.
A kiss Of greeting is sweet and rare
After the toll Of the day;
And it smoothes the burrows plowed
by care,
The lines on the forehead you once
called fair,
In the years that have flown away.
IT'S little thing 10 say. You are
kind.

But it sends thrill through the heart,

AS we climb ifes rugged height.

But we dole the love grudgingIy,
less and less,
Till tis bitter and hard to live.
