His Mother's Way

    By James Whitcomb Riley



        Tomps 'ud allus haf to say
            Somepin' 'bout "his mother's way." -
        He lived hard-like - never jined
        Any church of any kind. -
        "It was Mother's way," says he,
        "To be good enough fer me
        And her too, - and certinly
            Lord has heerd her pray!"
        Propped up on his dyin' bed, -
        "Shore as Heaven's overhead,
        I'm a-goin' there," he said
            "It was Mother's way."
