« ..another year with my beloved.. | Main | Are you good enough.......? »
...If the children were no more?
We should dread the desert behind us
Worse than the dark before.
What the leaves are to the forest,
With light and air for food,
Ere their sweet and tender juices
Have been hardened into wood,--
That to the world are children;
Through them it feels the glow
Of a brighter and sunnier climate
Than reaches the trunks below.

Makes me think of Demographic Winter.

I've never heard the words to this music. I have a CD, Simple Gifts, that I got from Ligonier Ministries, but it's all instrumental. You always choose the perfect music for your posts.
Blessings, dear friend!
