I
Fo 111 i n C rep n Cabin
By Harry C. Bosch
What, you’re getting tired friend.
Does the trail seem long
and steep?
Do you wish to set* the cabin?
The place where you will sleep
Around the bend o’er yon
hi! 1 tops,
Is a qui*'t spruce hemmed
deli;
YouTi be glad, I guess, when
we get there.
Far from sound of whistle
and bell.
Let us rest, then hurry onward,
Look, at that Squirrel
bustling around
(baaing in his store for winter
Before the snows, make
white I he ground.
Hear that far off kluckof a
fool hen?
As i; lie-.is e.( wn or the bre Z'
Gun alright? Be still then,
And watch among the trees.
Gome lets go quietly on then,
We’ll see that old lien soon
I think.
You go ahead and get
that bird,
Taae your time, but watch
that gink
As he sits up there, his head
a-wobble.
See him! On yonder limb!
Take good aim, let him have it,
See him fall? You sure got him.
This will give us sou))
for supper,
Do you know I’m hungry?
So am i.
Follow the trail, and keep
close watch
And Fohlin Cabin, you soon
will spy.
Do you see that little clearing
Acjoss the creek? Everything
seem well.
And you’ve a hunch what we
are nearing
In that bit of woodland dell.
Here to watch the many
wood fo la,
At their work, and at
their play,
Here to be, as tree as they are
To forget our work in
every way.
To learn what nature has
to tell us,
Her secrets, large and small,
In her different moods
and changes,
A lesson, for us all.
SSh! -Doctor —“My friend,
you are suffering from a chronic
complaint.”
Patient—“I know it but
please, lower your voice; she’s in
the next room.”
