Old Garman's SchooIhouse
BY w. D. Greene

BY w. D. Greene
OH well do 1 remember the school
house built of logs,
And the old oak tree that stood be
side the door;
The stream where in the summer
time we waded catching frogs;
And the whippings that I used to
get galore.
That dear old log academy has
long since passed away.
It's pedagogues have long been laid
to rest
And schoolmates too, are dead and
gone, with whom I used to
play.
But their memory still fingers in
my heart.
Sometimes an old mate meets me,
With hearty handclasp greets
me;
And we talk about those happy
days of yore,
When we used to fight and
scramble,
And on the green grass gambol,
Meath the oak that stood beside
the schoolhouse door.
Those happy days have long since
fed and I am growing old;
My hair is thin and freely mixed
with gray;
And yet it seems but yesterday
since with other boys,
Around the old log schoolhouse
yard did play.
Since then I've seen both joy and
pain but yet those happy days
Come stealing DER my memory
like a dream.
And see myself in fancy, a bare
foot boy once more,
In the old log schoolhouse by the
Cypress Stream.

the old home Jim 2"
