“Zeppelins again visited the East
Coast” Daily Paper
When the job we’re on is ended,
And like a beaten hound
Whining of “Peace with Honour”
The Hun comes slinking round.
We may forget the sorrows,
That we ourselves endure,
The men who perished fighting
To make our triumph sure;
But while a spark of manhood
Remains in England yet
The slaughter of the babies
How shall we dare forget

Censored.
A letter dear to you I write
To tell you that although ‘tis true
I must not say anything new
Because its censored
Therefore you will understand
When this to you does come to hand
That everything I would wish to say
Is censored
The sun is hot, the wind is not
The sea is blue as forget me knots
Now I will describe a thing or two
Unless censored
My health is fit my temper good
My mind is clear so do not be rude
And think because I write this to you
I’m censored
My face is black as black as night
My hair is turning almost white
And I should be in a great plight
If censored.

And all this house was peopled fair
With sweet attendance, so that in each part

Soft speech and willing service; each one glad to gladden, pleased at pleasure.
So life glided beguiled, like a smooth stream
Banked by perpetual flowers.

God and soldiers we
adore in times of war
and not before.
When war is over and
everything righted
God is forgotten, and
the soldier slighted.

Bright is the ring of words
when the right man rings them,
Fair the fall of songs,
When the singer sings them.
Still they are carolled and said 蜜桃直播�
on wings they are carried-
After the singer is dead
and the maker buried

There will be miles & miles of smiles

If we looked for people蜜桃直播檚 virtures
And their faults refused to see,
What a comfortable, happy,

But the man worth while , is the man who can smile

The old man of Alexandria
There蜜桃直播檚 a little dark shop in town.
Where the old man sits him down.

Tip-tap all day
on gong or tray;
With ne蜜桃直播檈r a smile or a frown.
The 蜜桃直播淎sturias" is in dock
The Sisters town-ward flock
His work does stop
They besiege his shop
And examine all his stock
[Image]
Then once again to the ship
These Sisters blithely trip
The old man gloats
蜜桃直播淟ong life to the boats蜜桃直播�
Tip-tap, Tip 蜜桃直播搕ap, tap-tip
Each on the ship displays
Gongs, pots & gorgeous trays
With obvious pleasure
They vote him a treasure
So wish him 蜜桃直播淗appy Days蜜桃直播�

Thy tender care is everywhere

So now sweet ray good night

I love to hear your cheerful laugh
I never see you frown
You make me content tho蜜桃直播� badly bent,

You never can tell what thoughts will do
In sending you hate, or love
For thoughts are things, & their airy wings
And fleeter than carrier doves.
They follow the law of the universe
Each thing must produce its kind
They fly o蜜桃直播檈r their track & bring you
Whatever went out from your mind
(Copied from A.A. of a Canadian sister)
