Absence I never knew until you went How much your resence really meant, I never thought that I'd deplore Your absence keenly o'er and o'er. I used to think it mighty fine When I could boast that you were mine, But now, alas! you are no more Than riches barred behind a door. But what's the use to cry and moan You'll ne'er come back as gift or loan, So I must try to be content And live right on without a cent. Helen Winters, '17 U nex pressed When Christmas comes around each year I try to make a song, I search my book of memories To find themes sweet and strong. Love, home, mother, friends, What dearer words than these? And yet no song comes gushing forth, In vain I touch the keys. The sound is but a monotone, Its theme could ne'er be guessed, Why is it that life's sacred things Are poems unexpressed? Yet the song is there, I feel its spell, So let my soul rejoice And lift itself to God in prayer Who will give to my song a voice. R. T. S., '17 67
