Gamaliel Bradford Joy Poems
- 1. My Youth
Oh, my youth was hot and eager,
And my heart was burning, burning,
And the present joy seemed meagre,
Dwarfed by that perpetual yearning.
... - 2. Hunger
I've been a hopeless sinner, but I understand a
saint,
Their bend of weary knees and their con-

... - 3. Who Cares?
Who cares,
Though age oppress,
And griefs distress,
And the long, long day
... - 4. Comedy

I clutch at joy and heed not hope.
