Living

Life and Love

by Freeman E. Miller 1864–1951

From Oklahoma Sunshine (1905)

Living

Life, and the trouble that comes along,--
Life and the griefs it carries;
But Love comes by with her lips of song,
And the joy that forever tarries!

Life and the love and the bliss supreme,--
Life and the smiles of gladness;
And the song she sings is a holy dream
Where the soul forgets the sadness!
