Excerpt from A Tribute to James Whitcomb Riley: And Other Poems
To all who
In fancy, would pursue
The peoples' Poet Laureate
Beyond the Pearly Gate,
May see him meet
Upon the Golden street,
The friends of Auld Lang Syne.
Already, you have guessed
The first -
His mother - and the best,
God ever gave.
Or mortal man could have.
The next her love almost divine
On Earth - "That old sweetheart of mine.'
Then "Old Aunt Mary" - friend of youth.
His friend "Doc Scifers" - soul of truth.
The raggedy man.
Little Orphant Ann -
Ie, dear little waif
Safe.
Ten thousand more who loved him here,
Rejoice to meet him there.
