Learn To Like

 School yourself to savour most
Joys that have but little cost;
Prove the best of life is free,
Sun and stars and sky and sea;
Eager in your eyes to please,
Proffer meadows, brooks and trees;
Nature strives for your content,
Never charging you a cent.
Learn to love a garden gay, Flowers and fruit in rich array.
Care for dogs and singing birds, Have for children cheery words.
Find plain food and comfort are More than luxury by far.
Music, books and honest friends Outweigh golden dividends.
Love your work and do it well, Scorning not a leisure spell.
Hold the truest form of wealth Body fit and ruddy health.
Let your smile of happiness Rustic peace serenely stress: Home to love and heart to pray-- Thank your God for every day.

Sixteen Dead Men

 O but we talked at large before
The sixteen men were shot,
But who can talk of give and take,
What should be and what not
While those dead men are loitering there
To stir the boiling pot?

You say that we should still the land
Till Germany's overcome;
But who is there to argue that
Now Pearse is deaf and dumb?
And is their logic to outweigh
MacDonagh's bony thumb?

How could you dream they'd listen
That have an ear alone
For those new comrades they have found,
Lord Edward and Wolfe Tone,
Or meddle with our give and take
That converse bone to bone?

I am not one whom Death doth much dismay,

I am not one whom Death doth much dismay,
Life's terrors all Death's terrors far outweigh;
This life, that Heaven hath lent me for a while,
I will pay back, when it is time to pay
