Cheating Time |

________________________________________________
Title: Cheating Time Author: Ella Wheeler Wilcox [More Titles by Wilcox] Kiss me, sweetheart. One by one Soon, too soon, for you and me Do not let time cheat us then, Every time a moment slips While we're kissing, strife and pain If we pause too long a space, You may pout, and I may scold, Death may come, and love take wings; May creep in to spoil the day, Let us time, the cheater, cheat, [The end] GO TO TOP OF SCREEN |
