i MY CHILDREN
The children left their games upon the floor
And one by one they nil have pnne to bed.
The lire Is burning brightly on the hearth
Entrancing me with colors blue and red.
And in that fire I see the children playing.
So llm my pipe and settle back to rest
DronmiK that they never, never leave me
And Kaieli.jr out the window to the West.
There I see the last of dylnfr sunshine
And suddenly remember with start.
Hint as the children left their plnylhlngs
scattered
They won will leave their home for busy
mart.
That as the lire In the hearth shall vanish.
That as the sun now died In the West
Tlut as they have all left their playthings
scattered
So. too. they'll (to before I've gone to rest.
And In years that come when work is finished.
As now. each one shall trayel on his way;
I'll miss their cheerful Hons and happy laughter
As now I miss their happy, lithesome play.
But then as now I'll have the fire for comfort
And memories of their very happy smiles
And in the eventide of life my blessings
Shall travel to them o'er the weary mile.
