sOLILooUY ON MAY MORNING.
Oh, who would think ,heis gloomy day,
Was our long talked OF, first of May,
We thought the Sun would be shining bright,
And the birds be singing in sweet delight
But now, as we'll as we can remember,
1t looks like day, in the month ofSeptem.
Der;
Instead Of the song OF the merry bird,
Tn frogs, with discordantnotes are heard
And the trees, are hanging their beautiful
boughs.
AS ifmpurning these blighted hopes ofours,
And the flowers, too, look heavy to-day,
AS if weeping for US and the first of May.
The Queens are waiting with all their trains,
Just waiting for sunshine and dreading the
rains,
We know that the clouds will not always stay
And we may still have our Picnic some
time in May.
We must not mind it, our parents say,
Although it is dark on the first of May.
Though the clouds are dark, the sun shines
above,
And our disappointments are sent in love.
To show us we must not fix our mind
Un iieetlng Joys OF worldly kind,
But learn to wa; and be happy and gay,
Fen though i, should rain on the first of
May. M. A. B.
