THE THOUGHTFUL BOY
Оглавление“Little by little,” said a thoughtful boy,
“Moment by moment I’ll well employ;
Learning a little every day,
Not spending all my time in play;
And still this rule in my mind shall dwell,
‘Whatever I do, I’ll do it well’.”
Little by little, I’ll learn to know
The treasured wisdom of long ago,
And one of these days perhaps we’ll see
The world made better for having me.”
And do you not think that this simple plan
Made him a wise and a useful man?
