4 LITTLE more tired at close Of day:
~ little less anxious TO have our
"a way;
u A little less ready to scold and
blame;
And NO we are nearing the journeys end.
Where time and eternity meet and blend.
A little less care for bonds and gold;
A little more zest In the days of old:
A broader view and a saner mind,
And a little more love for all mankind;
A little more careful OF what we say;
And so we are faring a-down the way.
little more love for the friends of youth;
A little less zeal for established truth;
A little more charity In our views;
A little less thirst for the daily news;
And so we are folding our tents away
And passing In silence at close OF day.
A little more leisure TO sit and dream;
A little more real the things unseen:
A little bit nearer TO those ahead,
With visions Of those long loved ana
dead;
And so we are going where all must go
To the place the living may never know.
A little more laughter, n little more tears.
And we shall have told our increasing
years;
The book is closed. and the prayers are
said,
And we are a part OF the countless dead.
Thrice happy. then. II some soul can say,
II live because he has passed my way"
