Then Laugh by Bertha Adams Backus
Build for yourself a strong box, Fashion each part with care; When it's strong as your hand can make it, Put all your troubles there; Hide there all thought of your failures, And each bitter cup that you quaff; Lock all your heartaches within it, Then sit on the lid and laugh.
Tell no one else its contents, Never its secrets share; When you've dropped in your care and worry Keep them forever there; Hide them from sight so completely That the world will never dream half; Fasten the strong box securely- Then sit on the lid and laugh.
