OF INTEREST IN THE
THE LITTLE PLAY-SOLDIERS
(And the Mother’s Dream)
The little Play-Soldiers are march
ing—
See the shine o’ their curls in the
sun
They,, too, with a kiss
N r ent to war, —but like this:
ilt’s over when playtime is one!
run to their mothers to rock
them to rest,
Kit there’s many a mother with
wearying breast.
■’ve seen them in days o’ the past
time,
Stand lonesome in many a door; —
Stand weeping and wait
j'or the click of the gate—
For footsteps returning no more.
With the kiss of a mother even war
has been blest.
3ut hers are the tears and the weary
ng breast.
Yet her arms, if they could, would
not keep them
When the Land leaps to Liberty’s
call;
Oh, never a moan!—
They are Liberty’s own; —
It is Liberty mothers them all!
And search each clod of a battle
strewn sod,
For Liberty’s fighters are fighters for
God!
The little Play-Soldiers are marching,
And I dream of what’s been and
may be;
But Liberty’s gleam,
Is the light of the dream,
And their’s is the light o’ the Free.
And I’ll kiss—when their places in
bright ranks they take—
The swords of my soldiers for Lib
erty’s sake.
Frank L. Stanton.
