Jack. dear. when you came. lent for . little.
How your first cry, heard In the night time.
Reused us and thrilled us. breathless.
With the wild glamour Of 1ife-new life.
When in our arms darling, they laid you
And that weak wall would hush we held
All in n moment. born in our hearts.
Came the old wonder OF iove-new love.
Then after six brief years you were laid.
strewn with white flowers in your small bed
White ROBBED and looking like some rare
jewel,
Clothed with the beauty Of death-new
death.
How rebelled with our arms empty.
Angry with God. who had recalled you!
bitterly, lonely. wanting You here.
Wrent with the anguish OF 1oss-new loss
Now. dear. as we kneel filling your last bed
With the first and last blooms Of the sea-
sons.
God, in His mercy, healing our hearts,
Sends the new wonder of faith--old faith.
