Life's Car.
'Hurry up!"
No lingering by old doors of doubt,
No loitering by the way:
No waiting a Tomorrow Car
Here comes along Today:
Success is somewhere down the track,
Before the chance is g-one
Accelerate your laggard pace;
Swing on, I say, swing on.
Step lively!"
Belated souls are following fast:
They shout and signal Wait!"
Conductor Time brooks no delay:
. He rings the bell of Fate:
But you can give the man behind,
With one hand on the bar.
A final chance to trick defeat
And board the moving car.
"Move up:"
Make way for others as you sit.
Or stand: This crowded earth
Has room for every journeying soul
En route to Higher Birth.
Aye, room and comfort if no one
Took double share of space,
Nor let.his greed and seltishness
Absorb another's place.
"Hold fast:"
The jolting switch of Obstacles
With jarring rails is near:
Stand firm of foot. be strong of grip.
Brace well, and have -no fear.
The Maker of the Car of Life
Foresaw that curve-Despair
And hung the straps of Faith and Will
So you might grasp them there.
