Leaves From Our Poets.
On the Road of Memory

Upon the road of memory,
fingered long today;
And oh, the things that did see,
Upon that precious way.
A little chap with dark brown eyes,
With others, came along;
He was not big, nor very wise,
But happy was his song.
He sang of days that were to come,
When he should be a man,
They make truly wondrous sam,
The things that he did plan.
But when he looked me in the face,
Twas with wistful eye!
Then turned and gazed into space
And gave little sigh.
And then he spoke, his voice was kind
His words-oh, they were good
He whispered softly: never mind
We've done the best we could.
For on the road of memory,
That leads to yesterday,
He was the lad I used to be,
Before my locks were gray

MEMORIES
By J. b.

The last sweet strains of music ON that day,
Still nger in the land of twilight dreams;
Blending with melody where feet would stray
Through Tempan wales beside enchanted streams.
Those FAIRIES ALL in slumber's visioned scene
Have danced on sunbeams in their light attire;
While Orpheus and his band out on the green, |
Touched chords that set the hearts dreams aire. |
The same fair dancers with the skipping feet.
And songsters who can sing just like bird.
Have all been seen in slumberland's retreat,
And once again that music has been heard.
With inmate friends out on the turf green reef. |
Old times all-ln years-yet hearts were young
For age is not the scar d and yellow leaf,
When music YIELDS it's charm and songs sung.
Bright earlands we did gather in the DELL
For that gay troupe, bedeckng all with posies;
And, here my muse would pause. but must tell
Old Pap's' joined hands in Ring around the
Rosies.'
Queer antics did the older lads perform
While ladies danced air and flower tops;
1t seem'd as If they spun till over warm.
Turning cart wheels: and the backward fops.''
Then 10! as dusk crept oerths sylvan lane.
crescent moon swung in the crimson sky.
Riding baby star. and, once again
The unseen fairies sang that lullaby.
Then all was still save the lone whispering
Of dryads, gazing past the starry mart;
Who told of that fair cline where shepards sing, |
And souls who on this earth have fld part.
Morning mas dawned on dreamlands peaceful
shore,
Leaving remembrance with cur silent cheers
All say is-luck for evermore,
Go with the kind, big hearted volunteers.
