CAPT. WALL WRITES POETRY
The following verses, appearing in a Florida news-
paper are a contribution by Capt. J. E. Wall, of Ta'mpa,
l’la., and formerly living at Plano. Capt. Wall’s Plano
friends are legion. His visits here are almost a continual
delight to all of us, and we read his brief incursion into
the realm of versification with pleasure. He is one of
nature’s noblemen, not only in his dealings and social
intercourse, but in the thoughts and sentiments that he
holds :
“SAY IT TODAY.”
Don't start a river with your tears,
The day I leave this sunny sphere,
And spend the time a-telling why,
You think 1 hadn’t oughter die.
And when they gather, front far and near,
To bid farewell, and shed a fear,
Don’t stand around and whimper and whine,
About how you know I’m going to shine,
Over There!
Instead, I Ueg that while I’m here,
You’ll let me have those words of cheer,
For 1he praise you speak, and the tears you shed,
Will do me no good when I am dead.
So please don’t wait 'till I am cold,
To stand around, and talk so bold,
About the virtues 1 possessed,
Your hearers may say—"God help the tost!”
Over Here!

But*if you think I’ve done a thing,
To lighten a load or ease a sting,
just stop a moment, no matter where,
Extend your hand, say “Put her there!
I’ve watched, your step, you’ve played ’em straight,
And some sweet day you’ll enter the gale,
Over There!
Just think of all Ihe good things you’ve said,
About your friends, when they were dead,
You stood aghast, and wondered why,
You didn’t say ’em before they died!
And from this day resolve to say,
The praise you feel from day to day.
If yoil’ll do this. I’ll pass it along.
And thus make life one grand sweet song.
Over Here!
