A poem by Oliver Herford

The Sloth

________________________________________________
Title:     The Sloth
Author: Oliver Herford [More Titles by Herford]

THE Sloth en-joys a life of Ease;
He hangs in-vert-ed from the trees,
And views life up-side down.
If you, my child, are noth-ing loath
To live in In-dol-ence and Sloth,
Un-heed-ing the World's frown,
You, too, un-vexed by Toil and Strife,
May take a hu-mor-ous view of life.






[The end]
Oliver Herford's poem: Sloth
