As life runs on, the road grows strange with faces new - and near the end. The milestones into headstones change, Neath every one a friend.

As life runs on, the road grows strange with faces new - and near the end. The milestones into headstones change, Neath every one a friend.
I am prepared to meet my Maker. Whether my Maker is prepared for the great ordeal of meeting me is another matter.
They who forgive most shall be most forgiven.
I am not afraid of tomorrow, for I have seen yesterday and I love today.
A man must stand erect, not be kept erect by others.
Because I liked you better Than suits a man to say, It irked you, and I promised I'd throw the thought away. To put the world between us We parted stiff and dry: 'Farewell,' said you, 'forget me.' 'Fare well, I will,' said I. If e'er, where clover whitens The dead man's knoll, you pass, And no tall flower to meet you Starts in the trefoiled grass, Halt by the headstone shading The heart you have not stirred, And say the lad that loved you Was one that kept his word.
