James Whitcomb Riley - A Life-LessonJames Whitcomb Riley - A Life-Lesson
Work rating: Medium


There! little girl; don`t cry!    They have broken your doll, I know; And your tea-set blue, And your play-house, too,    Are things of the long ago; But childish troubles will soon pass by.     There! little girl; don`t cry! There! little girl; don`t cry!    They have broken your slate, I know; And the glad, wild ways Of your schoolgirl days    Are things of the long ago; But life and love will soon come by.     There! little girl; don`t cry! There! little girl; don`t cry!    They have broken your heart I know; And the rainbow gleams Of your youthful dreams    Are things of the long ago; But Heaven holds all for which you sigh.     There! little girl; don`t cry!
