"CONTENT"

(By Sheila Smith, aped 14. Sydney.)

To |l« «|| day amtd the warmth of tlsver And let the world it by, Hi hopes and fears, See the long Una of birds fly quietly" over . . , To think of these in troubled after-years, And trace the track where Youth and Laughter went.. This is 'content

To come home from the 'creek when the sun set'i fading And find the wooden shack 1 fairy's place, Watch a tall heron in the lilies wading, And care not for the mad whirl of life's race

Td see young feather wattles 'jalnst the glory Of summer sunsit and the silver jky. And think of ttiinssne'er told in verM or story ;^iti» find the love that jlotho net ftd»ikv die. To keep, when wo «re:tld, the love God sent . .. ■"^ "This ;i» content.»:.'-".'";"-"-"'- ■' '■ '-':'*■■.•■■
