Living
Wait Awhile
From Oklahoma Sunshine (1905)
Living
Don't you worry at the winter!
There's a streak of shine about,
And before the storm is over
There's a daisy peeping out!
Spring is coming clothed in beauty,
And her lilies laughing white
Wait beneath the melting snow-drifts
For the days of their delight!
Over yonder smile the gardens,
And the sky above is blue;
And your sweet-heart trips the meadows
With the roses red for you!
