POETRY
THE DOCTOR,

The doctor he comes smiling. and he
holds my weary hand,
And he says I'll soon get better and
that soon he'll let me stand:
He promises the roses to my cheeks
shall come again,
And he laughs away the fever, and he
jokes away the pain.
Through the long, long night suffer;
weird the dreams that come to
Quaint the thoughts that I am think
ing; strange the sights that
can see.
But the sunbeams Of the morning bring
the doctor up the stairs
And the heart of me is lighter Of q
thousand different cares.
There is courage in the twinkle Of his
kindly, smiling eyes.
And before his merry laughter fly a
Thousand fears and signs;
And the thoughts that have been
dreary change to pleasant ones
When the good old kindly doctor smiles
the doubts and breads away.
For the doctor he comes singing and he
sits beside my bed
And he lifts my weary spirits. as the
pillow lifts my head:
And the fever seems to leave me and
the pains are not severe
And I'm better for his presence, and
I'm stronger for his cheer.
The doctor he is clever. sure and GER
tain to his skill,
for his work among the H.
But it's not his wisdom only that the
life of us insures,
And it's not his pills and tones, but
the heart of him that cures.
Edgar a. Guest, in the Detroit Free
Press,
