ONLY

It was only a little blossom, Just the merest bit of bloom; But it brought a glimpse of summer To the little darkened room.
It was only a glad “good morning,” As she passed along the way; But it spread the morning’s glory Over the livelong day.
Only a song, but the music, Though simply pure and sweet, Brought back to better pathways The reckless, roving feet.
Only! In our blind wisdom How dare we say it at all? Since the ages alone can tell us Which is the great or small.
—The Advance.
