THE RIDE TO SCHOOL

When the snow Is coming down,
And the fences. bare and brown,
Gaping white,
And there's not n breeze to stir
Flakes that held TO branch and burr
Through the night;
Then there comes a happy feeling In the
memory of the day
When rode TO school with father In tho old
pung sleigh.
There was snow the same as now,
Topping every branch and bough
Through the wood:
And the spruces seemed to be
Each giant Christmas tree
Where It Stood
Bent and hung with toy and doll, TIL
wished that l could stay.
And would turn aboutand watch them FROM
the old pung sleigh.
Then the shapes along the walls
Queer old women holding shawls
In their laps;
And the tents without door,
And the balsam stumps that wore
Pointed caps:
And the tracks across the snow, where q
squirrel frisked away
When he heard the squeak and rat lie of the
old pung sleigh.
There were thlmbles you could see
On the big thorn apple tree
Near the bars;
And the fakes that fell about,
As held my mittens out.
Looked like stars:
And beside the road hemlock reached its
arms across the way,
And would sift shower on US in the old
pung sleigh
And the lash on fathers whip,
How II used to trail and dip
In the snow.
| can hear the chickadees
Singing In the maple trees
And know
From the pleasures OF the present I would
gladly turn away
Just to ride to school with ather In the old
pung sleigh.
