Old Man Time

What a dear sweet child!

With big brown eyes and rosy cheeks

The chestnut streaming hair

The merry laugh the quickened pace

The happy, careless air.

What a strange odd girl!

That twisted mouth the shuffling step

The haunted fleeing eyes

The sharpened nails the ready tears

Those softly-spoken lies
