The Kalispell bee. [volume] (Kalispell, Mont.) 1900-192?, 1903-05-29

With awe and wondering.
They fetch his hat and touch his
sword
And, shuddering, whisper low:
Il wonder did he kin man,
A long, long time ago."
From dust of death and dew of tears
Upsprings the finest flower;
So blooms the daughter of the post
To crown memorial hour.
She brings the tribute of the land
To deck it's d'eathless brave
What wonder if they thrill to feel
Her step beside each grave?
Columbia, empress of the west,
Alike on land and sea,
Your starry vestments wake acclaim,
The banner of the free!
o. sovereign-mother! smile or us,
The while we kneel and pray
For those who died to live again
On each memorial day
Night kissed the rose, and bent
pure drops hung upon it's blushing
bosom and watched it's slumbeTs.
Morning came, with her dancing
breezes, and they whispered to the
young rose: it awoke, joyous and
smiling. Then came the ardent sun
god from the east; he smote the
young rose with his golden shaft and
it tainted. Deserted and heart brok-
en-. it dropped to the dust in its love-
liness and despair. Now the gentle
breeze came gamboling by, sweeping
over hill and dale, by the cottage and
still brook tanning the fevered brow
of disease and the curl of innocent
childhood thus signing wind comes
tripping along on it's errand of mercy
and love, it FASTENED to bend over
and kiss the withered rose and fond
ly bathed it with cool, refreshing
showers, the young rose revived,
looked up and smiled in gratitude.
But the gentle breeze hurried quick
ly away when her generous task was
performed, yet not without reward
for she perceived that the delicious
fragrance had been poured on he'
wings by the grateful rose, and thu
kind breeze was glad in her hear
and went away singing through thu
trees.
