The Home of My Heart.
- BY MARTHA ALRICKS JOHNSON.
The home of my boyhood, the cot I was born in.
Ah! Well I remember that dear humble
E’en though now in ruin it rises before me,
A peaceful old picture in memorv’s fond
spot.
lot.
Many years have gone by since I left it to wander
In far distant countries; across the white foam.
Reminiscent I sigh for life’s dewy morning
In the shadowy past, and my dearly loved home.
Contented and happy I roamed o'er the fields
A bare headed urchin, fleet footed I flew;
No thought of the morrow e’er troubled or vexed me;
Hearts around me were tender, and loving and true.
Alas!
Those dear ones—the hearts I loved best 3
But to me there’s a joy that I hold in store
They have gone to their heavenly rest,
A hope that we'll meet in
the blest evermore.
