WINTER ON THE FARM.

WINTER ON THE FARM.
This farms mighty coy place
When winter weaves his frosty lace
Across the winder pane;
When all the snow-bespangled vines
Lie sleepin' while the north wind
whines,
A-comin' down the lane.
My ear for music amt first class,
But somehow all the winds that pass
Make music in the trees.
The finest anthems / can hear
Come floatin' by me every year,
A-ridin' on the breeze.
My eyes amt like they used to be,
An some friends think that I can't
see
Tie faults Of other folks;
Bat still guess it's bout as well
Sometimes to 60 1t blind a spell
An treat their faults as Jokes.
But when 1t comes to aseein' sights
Say clouds, or crystals sheddin' lights,
Or pretty chunks o. wood
Or lookin' high or lookin' low
A4indin' stars in sky or snow.
My eyesight's pretty good.
Why, clean, white snow is pretty stuff,
A-trimmin' medder-land or bluff,
An when dry snow falls
The wind builds castles grand an fine
Right here on this old farm o. mine,
With scores o. marble halls.
It makes Teller think o. kings
An queens an knights an other
things,
