Musterseed:
My husband sat at an auction for four hours on Mother's Day last year to get me an old Bible.
It's beautiful, really big, with metal jacket, anyway this is the article.
* MRS COOLIDGE SENDS JOHN CHECK FOR POEM ON CALVIN

                            THE OPEN DOOR

                        BY GRACE COOLIDGE
          COPYRIGHT,1929 by Good Housekeeping Magazine

                         You, my son,
                          Have shown me God.
                         Your kiss upon my cheek
                          Has made me feel the gentle touch
                         Of Him who leads us on.
                          The memory of you smile, when young,
                          Reveals His face,
                          As mellowing years come on apace,
                          And when you went before,
                          You left the gates of Heaven ajar
                           That I might glimpse,
                          Approaching from afar,
                          The Glories of His Grace.
                          Hold son, my hand,
                          Guide me along the path,
                          That coming,
                          I may stumble not,
                          Nor roam,
                          Nor fail to show the way
                          Which leads us home.,
