Katharine Tynan - The WidowKatharine Tynan - The Widow
Work rating: Low


When she smiles her love draws nigh,     When she weeps he doth depart, And returns to the Heavens high     With an unwounded heart. God would suffer him no such wrong     As that he should see her tears Lest his heart be sad among     His young joyous peers. Therefore shall her tears be dried,     Therefore her poor lips will smile, So her darling by her side     May sit down awhile. So she bends her will to learn     Patience high and heavenly mirth, That her soldier may return     To his own hearth.
