Stress Relief by a Simple Life

Let Me Grow Lovely

An Inspirational Poem
Let Me Grow Lovely
by Karle Wilson Baker


Let me grow lovely, growing old—

So many fine things do:

Laces, and ivory, and gold,

And silks need not be new;

And there is healing in old trees,

Old streets a glamour hold;

Why may not I, as well as these,

Grow lovely, growing old?
