doors and the windows We're opened
Tor air and icicles formed on our no %
and hair Oh. those We're the days
that some people lament. the d"Na
when home was as warm as tent.
when fros could be seen standing Out
on The wall and windmills would run
in the parlor or ham
My house is as warm as a garden
In June. the steam in the pipes sings
iubilant tune, and winter may below
away at the door: he's foiIcd bt in.
