BOUQUET FOR FATHER.

I've searched the magazines and pa

But haven found poem that gives
father any praise.
I've looked them over carefully, I've
read and studied all,
But the sturdy representative of
Adams early fall
Seems to have escaped the notice of
the poets lucid powers,
And the one who bit The apple first
has gathered all their flowers.
Why no bloom from all the vistas of
the poets floral land
Was ever given father, could never
understand.
While mother sat beside the FIRE and
darned the children 5 socks,
Wash t father out a-hustlin' to gather
in the 'rocks:''
And when Benny had the fever, and
Bessy was SO sick,
Who tumblcd out for doctor, and
brought him double quick:
| would not rob dear mother of one
single bit of praise,
For faithfully she did her duty in
chiIdhood's anxious days,
And all through youth she was a
mother ever kind and true,
But I've got quite chunk of praise
to hand to father, too.
How he worked and sweat and grum-
bled, whistled, sung and smiled,
Toiled until his back was bent for
mother, home and. child.
| am not feeling grouchy because
mothers praise is sung.
For remember her sweet kiss on
my lips when | was young.
But also recollect great big, bur
ly, manly form,
Whose heart was where it ought to
be, whose smile was broad and
warm.
And l think it would be just cen in
this later day,
When we're picking flowers for
mother to give father bouquet.
