COMMON THINGS.
Joy is found in common things That each passing season brings:— Winds that tip-toe through the grain; Slanting lines of silver rain; Poplar-plumes that brush the sky, Fireflies flittering softly by; Hollyhocks beside a wall, And"* the meadow-lark's first call; Summer's green-gold loveliness, Maple trees in autumn dress; Winter's cozy firelight glow, Moonlight on new-fallen snow, There is wealth in common things,. More than worldly wealth of kings. " : —L. A.
