THE DAY

The day was a year at first
When children played in the garden;

The day shrank down to a month
When the boys played ball;

The day was a week thereafter
When young men walked in the garden;

when love grew tall

when old man limped in the garden

The day will last forever
When it is nothing at all. — Theodore Spencer
