Laughs Make You LiUp L0nger--Herps a Page of Lite
Just Folks
AUTUMN

It's getting on to fall again.
The crows begin to call again
And gather in the nearby woods
In strangely busy fooks;
The mist is on the hills once more,
And lavish Nature spills once more
flood Of shining gold upon
The humblest Of the stocks.
The woods are in their best today,
In bronze and scarlet dressed today
They seem a patchwork counterpane
OF color and design;
We wake to find at dawn again
Rich diamonds on the lawn again,
For every nights a jeweler
With gems surprising fine
Though walk you west or east today
Your eye will have feast today
For their is beauty all about
And splendOr everywhere;
And 1t may be when strife is done
And all the toll of life is done,
The charm Of peace shall settle down
And hide the lines Of care
oh, always with the fall again,
When beauty covers 81! again,
The thought returns If God rewards
The humblest vine and tree,
If splendor crowns their days at last
Shall we not hear his praise at last
Shall men not wear n glow of pride
For what they tried to be?
