WEATHER THOUGHTS.
From Puck.l
The weather's badly mixed, alas!
A little while 1t SHOWS,
And then across the whitened grass
The halmy zephyr blows.
While rich the rose trees gemmed
with buds,
The north's wild rat.tat.tat
Right of the clothesline rips the duds,
And of the fence the cat.
We hear the snowbird blIthely cheep,
And then the bluebird COOS;
Then from our buster swift We leap
To don our voershoes.
But ali these harsh things are as
naught,
Because each alternatcs
with one that makes us rapture
fraught
While laughing at the fates;
