Alternate Author Name(s): Browne, Felicia Dorothea
Subject(s): Mothers
LOVE! Love!--there are soft smiles and gentle words,
And there are faces, skillful to put on the look we trust
in--and 'tis mockery all....
There is none in all this cold and hollow world, no font
Of deep, strong, deathless love save that within
A Mother's heart.
