When the Weather Is Fair.

Is. T.. Kiser in Cleveland Leader)
i have tasks that claim me to-day,
Though / long TO put them away
And HE me hence from the noise and
the CRIME,
To where the green fields lie,
To hear the birds for the last sweet
time,
Ere they sing their sad farewells and fly
Away TO some fairer, SUMMER cline.
Oh. the sky is blue to-day,
And the wind is warm and sweet,
But / must work away!
Tomorrow I'll fare
TO the broad fields where
The sweet winds blow,
And the sky and the hilltops meet,
To sing with the songbirds ere they go,
And hear the white ewes motherly
bleat.
At a profitless task he worked away,
When the sky above was blue,
And laid his plans for future day,
AS foolish people do.
He put off his joys until the morrow,
And toiled for a little gain,
And awoke in the morn to find TO his
sorrow
That the world was drenched with rain.
O. when there are joys at hand,
Go pluck them while ye may
Let dolefui Sorrow stand
Aside for some future day.
Fare forth when the sky Is blue
And the balmy breezes blow;
Fair weather Is made for you,
And for you the streamlets flow!
IL the winds be sweet to-day,
Put profitless tasks away.
And fasten the doors upon Sorrow.
o. the time for truce with Care
Is to-day, when the weather Is fair,
For IL may be raining tomorrow.
