The Honkers.

When all the woods are red and gold,
And corn is shocked and dry,
j see the wild geese overhead
Go speeding down the sky.
Their mighty pinions cleave the air
To southern marshes bound,
And through the gray and drifting clouds
Their ringing trumpets sound,
Honk, honk
Between the meadows bare and brown,
And waiting for the snow,
The autOist is speeding fast
His scarlet car below,
And like an echo loud and far
Across the frosty morn,
1 hear upon the whistlng wind
His wild and warning horn
HOnk, honk!
