SOMERVILLE HIGH SCHOOL RADIATOR 13 AS LONG AS 1 MAY SING By Nona Locknian, 31 I’d like to be Most anything. Just as long As I may sing. I’d like to be A tiny breeze. And sing to all Of Nature’s trees. Or an old brass kettle, That’s brewing tea, And sings on the hearth Quite merrily. Or a lark That never dies, For it sings always To the broad blue skies. Or a stream, For I should Ever sing To the wood. Or a full-blown sail On a clipper ship, That sings of spray, And the sea’s broad dip. Or a clock On the shelf, That sings To itself. Oh! I’d like to be Most anything. Just as long As I may sing. A STUDIO IN PARIS By Nona Lcckman, 31 I want a studio in Paris. A garret high above the street, Yet near enough for me to hear Upon the cobblestones, the passing people’s feet. A place where I may work By my dreaming onward led And give to others the thoughts That go swirling through my head. An easel — the canvas upon it In one corner shall stand — May it feel often The touch of my hand. A desk with pen and paper It has been used before I find — And is waiting or me to write The poems still in my mind. Unceasingly I hope That there will always be Somewhere in Paris A studio that waits for me. THE THREE WILLOWS By Evelyn E. Paton, '32 The three old willows bend above the stream; Beneath their boughs the sun sends gleam on gleam Down to the rippling water and the moss. For many lonely years they have stood there, Around their tiunks grows dainty maiden hair. The little stars of Bithlehem peep out From underneath old boulders round about As up above the willows’ branches cross. Editor’s Note: The two poems by Nona Lockman were written last spring too late to appear in the final issue of the Radiator. Nona has since graduated but we enjoyed these verses of hers and tucked them away to appear in our first issue this fall.
