Excerpt from Memory´s Milestones: Reminiscences of Seventy Years of a Busy Life in Pittsburgh; December 25, 1918 Come, sit by the Fire The sixty-fifth birthday greeting of Percy F. Smith, Wrought into verse by his friend, Geo. M. P. Baird. Come sit with me, My Friend, by my heart´s hearth to-night, At Yuletide shall old joys abide beside us in its light. Five and three-score years, to-day, I round in Times, despite, So Friend, Come sit by the Fire. Many are the Pleasant Folk I´ve met along the road, Faring down the Marchant Ways, sharing bread with me; Trusting in each other, we have journeyed merrily, And now we´ll rest by the fire. We have wrought and fought, full long for heaven and the State. Valiant battle we have lost, but the war is won; Home we march victorious, beneath the setting sun, To sit in peace, by the fire. And evermore upon his Day Who Came in Love of Man, For Soul-wine and loaves o´ love beneath Yule´s holly tree, Here, or out beyond the vale, I´ll call you back to me With, Come Friend, sit by the fire. The Dreaming Child Went Long Ago On his seventieth birthday by Geo. M. P. Baird The dreaming child went long ago, The eager play-boy had his time, Youth leaped in lustihood, the man Fought upward to his ′ They passed, these earlier selves, but still Their spirit bides, and Fate Hath vanquished not the dream or play Or young man´s valor, and today My ungreyed, youthful hearth they fill, Though I be seventy.
