THE PINK SILK LADY By MARGARET WIDDEMER When the lessons very long,And the figures all come wrong,And the teacher sits and sighs,Then I always shut my eyesAnd forget the stupid sums—And the Pink Silk Lady comes. She has yellow hair, I think.But her cheeks and lips are pink;She can tell I want to play.So she takes me far awayWhere theres nothing hard to do.And the things you want come true. There we play for hours and hoursIn a garden full of flowers—Pink silk roses, growing tall,And she lets me pick them all.Always on the tallest treeHangs a pink silk dress for me ! Then she takes me way upstairs,\Vhere we sit on pink silk chairs.Music-boxes fill the halls,And I see around the wallsAll the toys I ve ever knownWaiting just to be my own. Then I hear the teachers footClose to where my desk is put,And I hear her laugh, and say,Is the work all done to-day?Then my lovely time is throughAnd the sums are there to do. 690 BOY SCOUTS IN THE NORTH; OR, THE BLUE PEARL By SAMUEL SCOVILLE, JR.
