"THAT MOTHER OF MINE"

Where the Sunbeams toss and tumble
Ger the hills in golden play.
Where the Cricket on the hearthstone
Whispers softly to its mate,

The Old Vine Clad Arbor Gate.

AS she leaned upon it swinging
In the gentle pale moonlight.
| can hear the old tunes sounding
Upon the open air,
AS feel longing in my heart
Yes, longing to be there.
In the valley where no shadows
Came DER my daily life,
Where naught but peaceful murmurs
Ran, mid flowing streams so rife.

Coming from out the Dell,
'Tis the laughter of the Dear Old Sou

But the figure, 1t has wandered
To another world l know
Where no more singing can hear

The Blue Bird, it still MARBLES
The Sunbeams chase and play,
The Cricket on the hearth's still there
But my Mothers gone away.
The Vine Clad Arbor Gate is there
It's hinges have rusty grown,
But still, 1t is, no creaking now
It's swinging is unknown;
And when the moonbeams gently fall
About the old, old place,
They seem to linger but awhile
For they miss my Mothers face.
