WANTS.
(By Dorothy Krydon, Hautanoa, Tokoniaru Kay, Kast Coast.) Let me. pluck a star from out the heavens, Let me catch a sunbeam in my hand, Let me sing a song, It may be short or long, Let me have tho gold from out the • sand. Let me see the moon when it is sickle. Let me feel the dampness of the spray. Let me have a flower, From my lady's bower. Let me have a sunny day. • r Let me hear the laughing of a child, Let me fee the trees, And hear the playful breeze. Let me have the freedom of the wHd. Let me hear the chirping of the birds. Let me see the cobwebs oh a tree, Let all the world be gay, All the live-long day, Let us have the pleasures of the free. Let me see the blueness of the sky. Let me see the greenness of the grass. Let us be gay, Laugh while we may, Before we onward pass.
