Our Yesterdays.

We've traced our sweetest dreams,
my dear, in yonder fires glow,
And thought the pictures
there we're of a Long Ago;
Unmindful of the fleeting years we've
wondered on, we two,
And you have been the same to
me and / the same to you
Your voice as sweet and hair as Jet
as ever, till tonight
| saw a single strand of gray re-
feet the rudy light,
A single silyery strand of gray twas
Furnished by the rays,
And then / knew the time has come
when We have Yesterdays!
] had not ceased to think of you as
blithe and young and fair,
And | as strong and straight as
when l waited on you there,
Until tonight, Our youngest one
sat here upon my knee
And looked into my eyes for long
and studied earnestly,
And looked at you. and at
length-my heart was fairly
wrungi-
I'm trying to imagine how you
looked when bofe of you
we're young"
| tried TO laugh 1t all away but, dear,
through all the haze.

has come when we have Yes
