Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Thoughts for Idle Hours Somebody´s Mother The world in its wild and maddened flight Goes heedlessly along, Pays no thought to the darkest night, And heeds not a ceaseless throng. A wanderer poor and forsaken May pass by one then another, But he´s not noticed at all, Lest it be by somebody´s mother. Somebody´s mother, tho´ old and gray, And bent by life´s lengthened years, Has helped the beggar, so poor, by the way, And gives him her prayers and her tears. The girl who falls by the wayside, And wrecks her dear sacred life, Who ceases to heed to her guide, Repents in bitter strife. The world now laughs her to scorn, Kicked and buffed by one then another, She begs for sympathy long - None offers but somebody´s mother. Somebody´s mother holds out her hand, To take this wanderer in, Battered and cuffed by a reckless band, With tattered garments of sin. The boy who has lived the most reckless life, And in shame wanders wildly home; Thro´ the world he stumbles in darkness of night, With a pillow of rock or stone.
