SMALL DESIRES.
If we could have all the things W9
want,
And do what we watit to do- '
This world would be a regular heaven
For me, and likewise for you!
For myself, I want not very much,
A home, with good clothes to wear;
Three meals a day—a husband all
mine,
Not one that I’d have to share!
To be his companion, chum and pal,
Have all the joys of life;
To be a mother, bear a son —
To be some good man's wife!
If no babe should come to me,
I'd like a prize dog or two;
A Spitz, a Pom, a Collie or Hull—
A fine string of hunters, too!
I crave no home on the avenue,
Riverside would do as well,
A house at Newport for the summer.
Some autos very swell!
I do not care for jewelry—
A ring, a necklace or two.
Some matched pearls of modest pink.
Tho’ this last is entre nous!
A yacht of my own I'd have.
So naught could interfere;
If I wanted to sail the seas
No old war could keep me here!
Then I'd like a maid or two
To shampoo and dress my hair—
And manicure my finger nails,
Massage and keep me fair!
if granted these desires,
I'd willingly forego
Tents court and billiard room,
And maybe the vaudeville show!
Since my wishes are very small
They should be of my life a part,
For the love I could give in return
Would melt e'en a marble heart!
—Annabelle Dennison MacConnell.
