I kneel by the little mound, I bow my head to the clay, I cry aloud in anguish For the one so far away. I miss him in the morning. For the smile on his dear face Was like a ray of sunshine As it brightened up the place. There is silence in our home, There’s a greyness in the morn. Nothing seems the same to me, For <my little Jack has gone. I miss him at the school hour, The pain I. scarce can bear. Other lads go tripping by. But my Jackie is not there. I kiss my darling’s school books— The last writing that he’d done. God comfort every mother Who has lost her flrst-born son. I miss him in the evening. Yes, I miss him most of all When, to say their evening prayer, My dear wee flock I call. One little lamb is •missing. But T fee! that he is there. I know he kneels beside me When we say our evening prayer. —Mother.
