LOVE, GIVE ME THE FEEL OF TO-MORROW by EDWARD RALPH CHEYNEY

First Line: COME, LOVE, HELP ME MOVE ALL THE MIRRORS OUT OF MY WORKSHOP
Last Line: BROADCASTING A FOREVER-AND-EVER ARMISTICE DAY.
Subject(s): HOLIDAYS; VETERANS DAY;
Come, love, help me move all the mirrors out of my workshop,
All the sore spots out of my heart!
You only can give me what I need:
A steel girder faith to build on,
The feel of tomorrow in my land.
Andante of a happy city's hundred thousand feet,
Keeping step in a grand procession,
Telling the world they walk in peace and freedom,
Broadcasting a forever-and-ever armistice day.
