This poem is about how we all feel from time to time. We should all take comfort and belive in the last paragraph: ----

Rest, for your eyes are weary, girl -- you have driven the worst away --
The ghost of the man that I might have been is gone from my heart to-day;
We'll live for life and the best it brings till our twilight shadows fall;
My heart grows brave, and the world, my girl, is a good world after all.

It is a 'Good World After All'


Jessi W. from Australia
