Laugh

Laugh, for our hearts still hunger,
Fain for your festal fire-
We, who have known you younger,
We, who have known you shyer;
What though the world grows older-
What though the tears must flow,
Laugh, and our hearts are bolder, 
As in the long ago.

Corinne Roosevelt Robinson

Sister of President T Roosevelt. The little card is written by a women who often met and heard Corinne at a Poetry Society and then gifted her daughter with this book
