Beyond.

Beyond the smiling and the weeping, I shall be soon; Beyond the waking and the sleeping. Beyond the sowing and the reaping, I shall be soon. Love, rest and home! Sweet home! Lord, tarry not. but come! Beyond the blooming and the fading, I shall be soon. Beyond the shining and the shading, Beyond the hoping and the dreading, - I shall be soon. , Love, rest and home! Sweet home! Lord, tarry not, but come! Beyond the parting and the meeting, I shall be soon; Beyond the farewell and the greeting. Beyond the pulse’s fiver and beating, I shall be soon. Love, rest and home! • Sweet home! Lord, tarry not, but come! —Horatlus Bona**.
