First Line: Here's a homely gathering
Last Line: To far perplexing places.
Subject(s): Old Age; Weariness; Fatigue
Here's a homely gathering,
Rows of rusty shoes
Waiting on the shoe-man's shelves,
Resting, two by twos.
Theirs a wistful weariness,
As of tired faces
After long, long journeyings
To far perplexing places.
