GRAINS OF GOLD
— LIFE. A little dreaming by the way, . A -little toiling day "by day ; A little pain, a little strife, A little joy— and that is life. . ~ A little short-Jived summer's morn, When joy seems all so newly born, When one -day's sky is blue above, When cue bird sings — and that is love. A little sickening of the years, ' i The tribute of a few hot 'tears ; Two folded hands, the failing breath, And peace at last — and, that is 'death. Jiust dreaming, ' loving, 'dying so, [\ ' The actors in the drama go— A flitting picture on the wall, ~ Love, Death, the themes.; but is that all ?
