Forty-six THE AURORA Sl-IGRT PGEMS I. There is something about short poems that appeals to almost everyone. Father Garesche's poems contain some great thought or lesson which, until he calls it forth, lies hidden in the simple beauty of common things. After reading his poems many of the sights and sounds of everyday life become enriched with a new meaning and a new beauty. Roots, for instance, appear to be of little account, and still are carrying on a great work. We wonder why the flowers that grow in the woods are called Wild when we see them standing so serenely fair. Those golden petals must have been wrought by some prince of filigree, we think. Yet, as we stand and gaze, the flowers seem to open their blossoms like a book, and from this book we read a thought of God. CRIMONT STEWART, '27. II. THE REVEALINGH When man first went through the hardships of winter, he was surprised that God should be so hard on men. The flowers were ruined and the woodlands were cold and dreary. But when spring came all things were clothed with new beauty, joy filled his soul and he understood that God can wound but to be kind. GERTRUDE KoHLs, '27. III. NEARERN In this poem, written by Father Garesche, we see two friends watching the sun slowly sinking behind the purple mountains. The last rays vanish, telling them it is time to part. As they stand in the grey twilight, their hearts suddenly darkened, one friend says, That measures out my time with you.', The other answers, And nearer brings our meeting too. It is a happy thought to look forward to the time when we shall leave earthly homes and earthly friends for our real home with God, where there will be no parting. RUTH BOUCHER, '27. IV. RAININGH When the morning is bright and fair, we long to wander about the woods, and our homes look sombre and dull 5 all round us nature's flaming beauty calls. But when the dull, chill rain falls on the glamour of the autumn morn then we are content to keep the cosy airs of homes. All about us gleams the false brilliance of the vain world. How its light lures us forth! Our sweet, simple homes, the joys experienced in the comforting church, seem dull and sombre to us. But the chill showers, kindly sent, have made my soul with home content. A great sorrow, weighing like a dull and constant burden on our spirits has made us realize the emptiness of worldly joys. It is then that we turn to God for com- fort and are glad to be in His grace and in the sheltering cosiness of our simple homes. CECELIA KRAUTKREMER, '27.
