To hold me now at all.
Since the cherry trees are bloomin',
And hear the robins call.
For the Master in his goodness
Made the country fair and free.
The birds. flowers and buddiu' trees
Fer lazy chaps like me.
Here is some specimen verse in "a
lighter vein from another issue Of the
Review:
In the spring the bull frog croaNcth
From the horsc-pond cool aud deep.
And the oumble-bee comes bumbling
From his long, long winter sleep.
Ia the spring the otlicc-seekcr
Blossoms forth on every hand,
Till bedeviled politicians
Sometimes say such words as d-m.
Fer the summers heat approacheth.
Home they'll all return again,
Footsore, busted, swearing vengeance
On some hapless Congressman.
