To Miss VI. T. Goodman on her natal

Another milestone. as the poets say.
Along life's journey, You have reached
today:
With kindly smile and loving words
to cheer,
Your friends have come and warmly
greet you here
The scene complete with little children
round.
And lovely flowers, that youthful hands
have found
In woodland dells, you've wandered
through and through.
Friends pray, that as the years go
by.
They oft may meet you thus on "Cous-
ms Isle;"
The charmed spot in Casco's waters
blue
Where's heard the song of robin. spar
row. thrush,
At morn AMI noon and oft at twi-
lights hush.
When afterglow at sunset paints in
glorious hue
Earth. sky and sea in tints. to artists
new;
Kind words and gifts from friends In
Newtown far away.
Have come to render tribute on your
natal day.
Friend OF my girlhood would that ]
could write
All the fond love in friendships links
kept bright.
And free from all care and sorrow each
