I'd sing a song about childhood,
life's joyous and garlanded time; but
I'm weary of ringing in wildwood,
and there's no Other word that will
rhyme. I'd MARBLE about bright, sun

are blent; but I'd have to lug in a
few mountains or my lines wouldn't
fit worth cent. I'd sing of life on
the pillows. where dolphins and flying
fish race; but I'd have to say some
thing about willows, which would
