TELL ME, LITTLE BABY.

WIN your ewes OF Dlue.
What you re thinking of the worlds
How it looks to you?
By what line of reasoning
Do Won gauge a foe2
And whene 'er you meet a friend,
How Is il you kn0wf
Tell me, lit,le baby.
With your eyes of brown,
And your pretty forehead
Wrinkled with a frown,
What's the weighty problem
That you seek to s0lve7
P 'rhaps some day Won II tell US what
Makes the world revolve.
Tell me. little baby.
While your eyes of gray
Seem TO see the future
Very far away,
Could YOU not foretell me
Just a thing or two2
Answers that are dark, and III
Be obliged to you.
All. YOU little babies,
With your knowing eyes,
We with all our wisdom
Are not half so wise.
God must have decided
An added sense to give
Just so Won could reason why,
And so learn TO live.
LEOLA HARVEY ELDER.
