Dresmla Old Dmni Over.
In this conrtln, matin sesson, when
the bob white whistles constant for hia
mate down In the orchard, whistles
loud and clear and sassy .like as if he's
jest got married--when the rooster in
tbe barnysrd flops his wings snd cuts
the backstop, clucks and crows and
Curls his feathers, flirts with bens and
courts the pullets when the turkey
gobbler gobbles, apresds his tsil snd
combs his whiskers, puts on airs like a
drum major with his scrstchln and his
struttin in ths golden hues of evenin,
in the dim and dusky twilight, when
the whippowllls and mock in birds and
katydids are singin so you here to stop
and listen then it's pleasant to quit
tbinkin and to catch my fool self
dresmln dreamln daytime dreams, I
call 'em dreamln of the times back
yonder, in them good old dsyt you read
of, in the past that's dead and buried,
when I fait my oats sod keepin. when
I stood six feet or better in my socks
and didn't carry any surplus flesh to
speak of, when I didn't hare these
hitches In my knees, ond these Infernsl
aches and pslns and ills anderilsthst
the sinful man Is heir to dreamln all
them old dresms oyer.
When I shut my eyes snd look back,
whilst my thoughts skip snd skeedad
dle, I can seo that old log schooihouse
and the pleassnt scenes sround it where
we went to school together, where ua
boys made flyln jennies, grsperine
swings, seesaws snd sich like,when we
hoys and girls went rorln after sweet
shrubs, after heart leaves In them
plain old days when people want so
golnstion particlsr ss to keep two
schools a runnin, one for males snd one
for females, so the boys snd girls can't
mingle snd git all mixed up together,
so the girls can't see their sweethearts
and the boys can't steal no kisses.
I can see the white sun bonnet, wltb
pink ltnin and blue trimmlns, and the
dress she wore on May day, with the
laces and the ribbons looped snd tuck
ed and tied in bow knots and I recol
lect exactly how she looked when first
I told her that I loyed her ten times
harder than a mule could kick with
both feet, how she blushed snd sighed
and fluttered while I waited for my an
swer, and she looked up shy snd trustln
like and says how she would have me
If in case her folks was willin I can
see the roses bloomln in her cheeks,
and count the dimples in her arms and
neck and shoulders, hear the music in
her Isughter, catch the Sunshine and
the shadows in her smiles and tears and I
glances like I use to in them old days !
whnn Ota wnt to arhnnl together. I
Well, of course I feel some oldei
when I see thst old log schoolhouse,
and it's ruther lonesome business to be
nosin round promisens in the past that's
dead snd burled cause the boys and
girls I run with hare come up ss men
and women. Some have gone away to
stay, and others lioger yet amongst ua
some hare mated off like we did, set
tled down and gone to raisin pigs and
chickens likewise babies.
Yet we hadn't ought to grumble.
Life is vain and short and fieetin, and
the only thing that's left us is to live
while we are ltrin. We can still be
young and happy in our hearts and
thoughts and feellns we can sing old
songs together we can play sweet
hearts forerer. And for me, I find a
lazy, harmless, helpless sort of pleasure
in this eourtin, matin season when my
heart gits light and frisky and as mel
low as a May pop-when I dream them
old dreams over.
