Excerpt from Little-Folk Songs
To R. M. W. and S. W.
Yet golden, dear ones, rises each fair head
To manly stature in full height completed,
Blue eyes glance bright 'neath brows where candor seated
Holds fearless sway. With ever quickening tread,
The incessant years my little babes have led
Far from me, flinging childhood's toys and flowers
Away, while speeding with the absolute hours
To lift life's iron gage. Hope strives with dread
To see you stand forth men. Backward I turn
Adown the path home-bound, content to find
Your tiny foot-prints, tenderly to trace
Remembrances, - haply o'er which to yearn
In the still house, - wherewith these leaves are lined,
Yours all the sweetness that may lend them grace.
