Gently they go, the beautiful, the tender, the kind;
Quietly they go, the intelligent, the witty, the brave.
I know, But I do not approve. And I am not resigned.”

Live a longer life than men do,
Men a longer life than dogs do,
Dogs a longer life than love does.”

Or her dishes done.
Any day you’ll find her
A-sunning in the sun!”
