HER HEAVEN.

I shall be young again—and pretty enough To make the saints smile at me as I pass With swift white feet across the heavenly grass. . I shall be gay and careless, and my heart Forever like some hidden bird, shall sing Of some approaching and most lovely thing. Surely, a thought absurd, unorthodox. To enter through an office door, or come Grotesquely as the subway crowds rush - home. There is a mirror in my lodging house . Stained here and there ’ with lines like slanting rain. That shows a woman neat and tired and plain. But in that mirror that no other sees I watch sometimes the girl in ParadisePretty—and young—with laughter in her eyes. —Theodosia Garrison in Everybody'S.
