One wants a teller in a time like thisA
-
One's not a man one's not a woman grownB
To bear enormous business all aloneB
-
One cannot walk this winding street with prideC
Straight shouldered tranquil eyedC
Knowing one knows for sure the way back homeD
One wonders if one has a homeD
-
One is not certain if or why or howE
One wants a Teller nowE
-
Put on your rubbers and you won't catch a coldF
Here's hell there's heaven Go to Sunday SchoolG
Be patient time brings all good things and coolG
Stong balm to calm the burning at the brainH
BeholdF
Love's true and triumphs and God's actualI
