The poet climbed the sanctum stair,
To seek the editor in his lair,
HIS hair was long and his collar sollod.
And HIS breath grew short. as up he tolled,
At last he reached the sanctum door,
The mecca sought by many bore.
The editor sat in a cane-seat chair,
And thus the poet addressed him there:
'Ive brought" he said "a beautiful thing,
A dainty poem entitled Spring."
The editor laid his 7. D down
And rose to his feet with an awful frown.
His eyes grew fierce with a bnleful glare,
And the poet turned to seek the stair,
He found the stair and he made jump,
And landed below with an awful thump.
Then out of sight, clear up the street,
The poet flow with nimble feet
And with him went this beautiful thing,
That soulful poem entitled Spring"
