Comrades

Come out, oh, little comrade of the
ueSseS flying free:
Rejoice in air and sunlight that were
made for you and me.
10 larry is folly and to worry is a
sin,
Our boat is on the river and the
tide comes in.
What roads were ever fairer than the
gypsy trails we love,
me messy rock beneath us and the
flying cloud above?
we mock the squirrels chatter and
the calling of the crows.
Our feet are on the mountains and
the west wind blows
me snow-encumbered forest rims a
frost-enchanted mere,
Inc hills are sharp in shadow and
the moon is bold and clear;
your cheek is rich in roses that the
touch of winter brings.
The lake is frozen midnight and the
bright skate rings.
but When we're done with rowing up-
der heavens mighty dome
A deeper JOY is waiting in our bounded
realm Of home;
The lamplight throws a halo round
sunny little head,
It's cozy by the hearthside when the
flame glows red.
