A Woman's Love.

A beautiful thing is a wonan's love
And to think that day by day
Some men are killing womans love
No two In the self-same way!
With thoughtlessness as wound,
Neglect and spite and scorn,
Till aching souls are cast in gloom
And bleeding hearts are torn!
A beautiful thing is a woman's love
A sacred thing and true;
Some men are killing a woman's
It's an awful thing to do!
An awful thing, but an easy thing,
For its delicate petals fall
AS swift as death in the north winds
breath
On the flowers along the wall.
A sacred thing is womans love,
solemn and wondrous gift
Some men are killing a woman's love
With the tide towards which thew
drift
Some men are bringing to beautiful
lives
Neglect. with its awful sting
A terrible dart that in the heart
Is the end of everything.
A terrible thing is woman's love,
For 1t must have love to live,
And men are killing womans love
If they cease their love to give,
1t may not die in moment-no,
Nor yet in n thousand years,
But 1t takes. the happiness out of life
And it browns the world with tears.
