I 1 Uber Qtlnmet I SAW A GYPSY CARAVAN I saw a gypsy caravan as I was passing by, A gaily painted caravan against the sombre sky, I heard the gypsy music and I was thrilled to see A graceful maiden dancing, so vivid, wild, and free. I saw them as they make their camp mid bustling noise, I heard the singing of the girls, the laughter of the boys, And when the moon was shining and stars gleamed bright above I heard a dreamy boy a-serenade his love. FANTASY I had a dream, I had a dream .... A million little buttercups Were dancing to the tune Of a million tinkling bluebells Who were flirting with the moong And all the frilly daisies Were waving to and fro, And bowing to the pansies- Their audience, you know, And the golden-rod was gazing At the myriad stars on high, While the bleeding-hearts were brooding And the violets heard their sigh, And giant-sized chrysanthemums Were swaying in the breeze, Accompanied by the rustling Of the leaves upon the trees. And the rustling of the grasses To the buzzing of the bees, QWho were playing with the cloverj Formed such pretty melodies. But I loved best the dalfodil That shed a golden gleam, So I reached forth to pluck it,-- -And lo! It was a dream . . . Mildred Dwzelz Sid Lang Twenty-one
