A gentle breeze,
a flowing stream;
the trees of green,
a pleasant dream.
Food I'd waste,
in hurried haste;
for all I faced,
in that rat race.
Why stood me here,
hand to my ear;
want for a cheer,
to come each year?
Accomplishments,
were not by me;
but all was He,
who lived in me.
There is no song,
now that I'm gone;
plant under lawn,
I say, "So long".
Sweat-less my brow,
no matter now;
not horse or cow;
my final bow.
This is increase,
I have my lease;
so let me cease,
and rest in peace.
