MY dear little freight sweetheart.
with n face that Is like your own.
shes reckoning there In the einbers,
And saucily holding her head.
In Pickering frock of crimson
And a tiny, wee tppet Of rcd.
Those duivcririg. scarlet strcaniers
Are the ribbons she loves to wear;
And that radiant glowing coronal
Is a poppy she put II, her hair.
Can't you see her datntily brushing
That tossing, stray lock from her brow
Down there where the coais aEe tie
brightest,
Where that reddest one fell Just now7
+ And now she is archly smiling,
AS she rogliishly beckons again
+ In the door OF a little red cottage
AT the turn OF little red lane.
And now she has come to the window
Where clambering flame-vine .clings;
And the murmuring Groom OF the embers
Is a love song that she sings
And ever and ever she cheers me
MY dear little freight sweetheart
With a face that is like your own,
AS there In the dancing doorway
She saucily mods her head, ~
In n Pickering frock of crimson
And Il tiny, wee tppet of red.
