CRYS,lTAL g M y 'lhbicalion Rock-a-bye baby, thy cradle is green, Fathefs a nobleman, m:other's a queen, Bettyls a lady, and wears a gold ring, And Johnny,s a drummer and drums for the king? Rock-a-bye baby, the cradle is rust, Or broken in splinters, or covered with dust, And Time in his passing has granted us youth, And fairies have vanished,-reality's truth. W e hear, no more, lullabies, crooned o'er our faces, We've grown, and we've gone, and weave left bare our places, Home isnit a spot where we build fairy bowers, Or play paper dolls for hours and hours, Or' romp with our brothers, as Indians bold, Or slide down the bank where often we rolled And bit, fought, and scratched-ah, our childhood is o'er, And is back in the past, as a tale told of yore. Wegre just girls-and 'tis human-that when nights have come And the lights have gone out-sometimes we feel dumb, No whispers, but silence, with memories thronging, And into our hearts have come yearnings and longingsg We,ve thought of you often, dear Mother and Dad, And we,d do anything to turn out- not half bad. And I guess that is why, since yo-u've been with us so In our school life-that all of us want you to know- H ow we love you-our mothers, our fathers, our friends, And 'tis love thru these pages this Annual sends. Rock-a-bye baby, thy cradle is green, F ather's a nobleman, mother's a queen, Still queen and nobleman, as long ago In the Mother Goose rhymes-and we want you to know.
