A Little Way By Frank Lebby Stanton

A Little Way
        A little way to walk with you, my own—  
   Only a little way,  
Then one of us must weep and walk alone  
   Until God’s day.  
 
          A little way! It is so sweet to live          
   Together, that I know  
Life would not have one withered rose to give  
   If one of us should go.  
 
       And if these lips should ever learn to smile,  
              With thy heart far from mine,          
         ’T would be for joy that in a little while  
   They would be kissed by thine!
