IN THE EVENING Of all the glories of the day I love the sunset best, Whe11 my troubles aside I lay And turn to joys and rest. The sky changes from purple to gold And makes a delightful scene Later the stars appear, so bold Giving the sky a brighter sheen. The cows come treading wearily home While they slowly chew their cud, Bees seek the hive, n.o more to roam Until the S1111 shines through the woods. The floweret droopin.g its tiny head In the evening can be seen, And the birds are hopping oft to bed To dream of the grass so green. Then comes the quiet twilight VVhich everyone should enjoyg Next appears the soft moonlight That holds charms for every boy. At last arrives the spirited night With the moon, of which I have told Making the World, peaceful and quiet, Full of the wonders it can hold. Rosalie Zimmerman. IN THE WINTER When the wind whistles through the trees When the leaves become brown and sere, And the snow bird which we see Hops to a hollow oak tree near. Then we know that winter's nigh And the grain is stored away. Mr. Black Bear, with fl heavy sigh Goes to sleep 'till some bright day. At home in tl1e eve everyone is cheery, While the ehestnuts roast in the fire Not even grandmother can be dreary 'Cause of her knitting she does not tire. The young folks all at checkers play While eating popcorn Snowy white Old Rover on the rugs does lay Glad he belongs to a family so bright. VVhile everyone inside is cheery Outside the snowflakes quietly fall, Like magic, making the world less dreary And blanketing the shrubs, both large an Rosalie Zimmerman. d small
