Love's Bounty

RUTH TINKLER

So many smiles that come and play
Across the threshold of the day,
So many flowers that softly bring
The tender messages of spring,
So many songs so sweetly sung,
So many deeds of kindness done,
So many loving hearts and hands
To loosen sin's unlawful bands,
So many stars that banish quite
The seeming darkness of the night:—
So much of good, so much of love,
Who seeks a paradise above?
