Here you will find the Poem You Smile Upon Your Friend To-Day of poet Alfred Edward Housman

You Smile Upon Your Friend To-Day

You smile upon your friend to-day, 
To-day his ills are over; 
You hearken to the lover's say, 
And happy is the lover. 

'Tis late to hearken, late to smile, 
But better late than never; 
I shall have lived a little while 
Before I die for ever.
