NEWSLETS.

| Winter and summer, autumn and spring
What tho the years passed by?
| For me IL was always January.
Bleak days and sunless sky.
But at last on my path broke a ray o
light
And the clouds began to unfold:
| And the future appeared all dimly bright
AS l saw what the spring might hold
And the flower in my heart that yo,
called 10 birth
The March winds could not KILL
And April came TO gladden. the earth,
And the burrows OF life TO NIL.
Stronger in secret grew my love,
The night had changed to day;
Flowers on the earth, and the sun above
And the whole world welcoming May.
Our hearts sang the self-same tune
And so, through all months that are yet
TO be,
Twill always for me be June!
