Dandelion Days
From JOAN SCHWA HZ. Princes Street, Cambridge). (Copied.) JQAXDI'XIOX days, dandelion days, Happy and gay and free; Silver and gold who'cr 1 gaze, —These aro the days for me. Sun 011 the river, sun on the hills, Sun on the ripening corn; Sun in the east where silver spills M agieal dew of dawn. Holiday time is here once more— Never a care have 1 — Out where the skylarks sing and soar, Out where the wind runs by. 1 took my tent and off L went. Far from the homes of men; 'And in this spot 1 found content, And found my youth again. Soon I must follow city ways; Clatter and rush and cry; Dandelion days, dandelion days, Why do you hasten away?
