"You smile upon your friend to-day" Print E-mail
(0 votes)

You smile upon your friend to-day,
  To-day his ills are over;
You hearken to the lover's say,
  And happy is the lover.
 
'Tis late to hearken, late to smile,
  But better late than never;
I shall have lived a little while
  Before I die for ever.

 ~ Alfred E. Housman
