I rg PANSY FACES GOLDEN pansy looked at me ,,. I ' And winked its red brown eyeg It smiled at me with redfbrown mouth, And tossed its head on high. Another one, with petals white And face both quaint and droll, Looked up and begged that I should wear Him in my buttonhole. A A pansy with a purple dress Awakened from a doze- It raised its head, andwrinkled up . A little yellow nose. Ilve read that ancients used to claim That a flower has a soul . . . Perhaps they have, these pansies In their bluefgold lustre bowl. DREAM O, NIGHT little moon boat sails the sky, llm llniy And we are in it-you and I, I A A Afsailing far and wide. Our boat is blue, with silver tipped, Propelled by paddles lightly dipped Into the starry tide. 204

.1 STILLNESS I ' I ILLNESS far below the surge n , , y Of storming waves at sea' Stillness in the forest depths A While winds race loud and free' Stillness in the steady years, Untouched as small days fleeg And in the heart of things that are, Now and eternally. ICQ Q31 T 1 A EVENING ' EACE broods above the shadowed lake tonight. f1 ,,u5! illllyl T1111 1115111111 hills are 111111111 softy 1111111 E Q Against the west. The moon is brightg A drowsy thrush, With single wearied note, wings swiftly through The breathless hush In homeward flight To treeftop nest, And all the sky is bathed in tranquil light. Peace lingers in my restless heart tonight. The evening stillness brings me thoughts of you- Of love and dreams In waning light. The cooling mist - Serenely blurs the hilltopls twilight blue To amethyst. The stars are whiteg And darkness seems To bring you gently through the fragrant Night. 205 1 1
