To You Who Count.


To you who count the days these lines are writ:
To YOU who, searching in the dimming past.
Upon some moldcrinG memory chance to hit
Who watch the sands that trickle through so
fast!
That memory-it may be but n rose
Perchancc ribbon, lock Of hair,
rustic scat whore wild flower grows,
A baby's trundle. a rocking chair.
If tears should fow then let them, unashamed,
For tears are jewels when by love refined;
And widest passions by tanned
Become the guardians OF a troubled mind.
And should you smile as lingering at the place
Where memory halts-should sweet
presence
To show hut for breath. n cherished face.
Then smile IL you who count cen as you
dream.
For in tho lanes of retrospect we walk
In sacred company; II some bright morn
We pluck the and with memories talk,
We shall not feel the piercing Of the thorn.
And you who count the days, come, sit with me
And turn the glass and let sands on:
For where the cloud drifts lic there shall see
The giorics OF new. efrulgent dawn!
