SONG.
Down amid the deep pine shade Soft ferns rustle in the breeze, Rata blossoms brighten all the glade, Long vines trail about the trees. Come, dear, 'tis the home of love, Soft sighs linger on the breeze ; Birds amid the branches far above • Hold their merry courtship in the trees. Come, love, down amid the shade, Bright dreams linger on the breeze ; Fancy that the world for us was made— You and me, the robins, and the trees. —David M'Kee Wright. Table Tops, Hakateramea, February 1.
