' BETTER DAYS TO COME A blanket covered the earth last night With soft, white patterns of snow. It left the world all glorious and bright, Making everything look aglow. ' The sun burst through when spring rolled 'round, And melted the blanket of snow. It left in its place the frost-filled ground, And the March winds began to blow. g April showers thawed the earth, Bringing flowers in glorious arrayg ' The world was filled with laughter and mirth. Yes, those were the happy days. HIIHJHKHMFIKIOIIIUIUKIIOKSKJIUIOKHkbiklkiirvkilflklklkikififilkivilifllfvklkfkilvk The seasons still pass on, But gone is the laughter and mirth. Each day there are millions who dieg These are the proofs of Democracy's worth. This is the price we all must pay ' To win our freedom and peace, So once again we will see that day When all the wars will cease, Priscilla Stevens 'uh THE LITTLE BROOK One day I stopped to watch a little brook Gurgling as it went on it s way. It lingered for a moment and seemed to look Up at me, and then I heard it say, NI am nothing but a little brook. Mother Earth has told me to be trueg s I must water every little nook, p Never to stop and play as others do. She said for me to follow this narrow path Until I reach my journey's endg She said no matter what may be my wrath, Not to forget that I am earth's friend. I'd like so very much to stop with you-and play, To dance, to run, to jump and to sing, But, instead, I must be on my way To reach my journey's end--the river king.' Richard Sonier 'LL

FRGM BROOK TO RIVER bbl' from the heart of a mighty rock, Merrily ba ing - r , The little stream sings through the forest dense. It rushes and ripples along its way, Still a tiny rivulet, still in the forest so deep It slows its rushingg therefs a light ahead, And the little brook knows not of worldly things. Out into the sunlight it rambles courageously, Flowing still onward, knowing'not whence. As it flows, it grows in size, A And gathers a knowledge of outside affairs. When rocks loom ahead, it quickens its pace, Hopping and skipping over and between 'Till finally spent, it slows to rest. Remembering its journey--the end not in view, The brook, now a river, wearied with travel, Tumbles along to meet what lies ahead. Soon in the distance the sea.can be seen. A journey well traveled is now at an end. Esteiia sytner ml, THE FIRST MAYFLowER A tiny elfin artist, With paint brush in his hand, Tripped gaily, ever striving To beautify the land. He found a tiny flower Just gray with timorous fright, And touched it with his paint brush-- It changed to rosy white. Blushingly it nodded With courtesy remote, And shyly then was hidden Beneath a green leaf coat. The elfin gently kissed the flower And then his course resumed, Through his magic brush's power A The first Mayflower bloomed. A Beatrice Lyford 'LL
