CHRISTMAS ON THE FARM
For The Rice Belt Journal BY W,
LOmaX ChildreSS.)

Going home tomorrow from cityS rush
and roar,
To the Christmas times of Eden that
my childhood knew of yore,
When the quiet joys that clustered
heard no bell of quick alarm,
And the flowers of Iaugher bordered
all the pathway to the farm.
Going home tomorrow to the red hills
covered white,
And the little house that tinkled to
the tune of rare delight,
Past the church that first in childhood
taught my bOyish lips to pray.
And the apple trees that blossomed
with the kisses of the May.
Going home tomorrow though the
stream that bdbbled low,
Now is bound with icy letters it will
welcome me know,
And the sunsets red will lure me with
the wonder of the west,
And mothers love will fold me to
true and faithful breast.
Going home tomorrow to the Christ.
mas dinner spread,
And the wanderers welcome waiting
where the heart is comforted,
There iov will meet and lead me in to
to childhoods house of charm.
And every care be cast aside at
Christmas on the farm.
