Louisa May Alcott Quotes
Queen Of My Tub, I Merrily Sing,
While The White Foam Rises High,
And Sturdily Wash, And Rinse, And Wring,
And Fasten The Clothes To Dry;
Then Out In The Free Fresh Air They Swing,
Under The Sunny Sky.
I Wish We Could Wash From Our Hearts And Our Souls
The Stains Of The Week Away,
And Let Water And Air By Their Magic Make
Ourselves As Pure As They;
Then On The Earth There Would Be Indeed
A Glorious Washing-day!
Along The Path Of A Useful Life
Will Heart's-ease Ever Bloom;
The Busy Mind Has No Time To Think
Of Sorrow, Or Care, Or Gloom;
And Anxious Thoughts May Be Swept Away
As We Busily Wield A Broom.
I Am Glad A Task To Me Is Given
To Labor At Day By Day;
For It Brings Me Health, And Strength, And Hope,
And I Cheerfully Learn To Say-
"Head, You May Think; Heart, You May Feel;
But Hand, You Shall Work Always!
