LIFE.

Life Is too brief
Between the budding and the falling
leaf,
Between the seed time and the golden
sheaf,
For hate and spite.
We have no time for malice and for
greed;
Therefore, with love make beautiful
the deed;
Fast speeds the night.
Life is too swift
Between the blossom and the white
SHOWS drift,
Between the silence and the lark's up
lift
For bitter words.
In kindness and In gentlenass our
Must carry messages Of hope and
reach
The sweetest chords.
Life is too great
Between the infants and the mans
Between the clashing Of earth's strife
and fate
For petty things.
Lo! We shall yet who creep with
numbered feet,
Walk glorious over heavens golden
street,
Or soar on wings!
