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 cosy firelight glow. Moonlight on new-falien snow, There is wealth in common things, More than worldly wealth of kings. — L.A.
