mmu POEMS-LYRICAL and PHILOSOPHICAL m SPRING BEAUTY The golden-winged butterfly flits through the shining sun, And the dainty little buttercup nods at everyone. There's a breeze in the air, and a hush through the trees, And laughing voices come ringing through the breeze. The trees put forth their tender leaves, And the rainbow in the sky a magic streak weaves. Such is the beauty and glory of Spring, The time when Nature smiles at every living thing. Theodore Sinitsky, RBI C THE FLOWERS I know a place where Roses grow- All in a pretty little row, Daisies and lilies and tulips too. I go picking them just for you. Filomena Ruocco, 7B6 O SPRING Wake upl Wake upl you lazy thing, Pull up the shades, and begin to singl Can't you smell the fragrance of flowers That come with rainbows and April showers? Spring is here, the flowers are blooming, Birds are singing and some are crooning. Wake up! Wake upl you lazy thing, Can't you smell the air of spring? Gloria Steckler, 7BI 0 TWO PORTRAITS Her eyes, how they sparkle, Her dimples so merry, Her lips like a rose, Her cheeks like a cherry.
