APPLE BLOSSOMS IN MAY
Good Evening.

I'm going to the country this afternoon
 And I'm assuring myself fine treat, On the high roads and by-roads along the way
 Orchards of apple blossoms delicately sweet. The peak of the spring. at least so 1t seems
 (Not excepting violets lilacs and such) Is just mopng along and whiting the scent
 Of sweet apple blossoms all love so much I'm going to the country this afternoon
 To see apple blossoms so dclieately pink That old gnarled tree in the bend of the road
 Is beautiful sight. don't you think?
