THE LOST ROAD
V little straggling, crooked load,
With flowers b> the way,
And here and there .1 quaint abode,
Ah, where is it today T
I used to jog along its edge
Avoiding ruts and deep
About me grew the wild-rose liedg'
All nature fast asleep.
The cackle of a farmyard fowl
Some'imes would stir the air;
Mayhap u dog would bark or howl
To see me passing there
A quiet, peaceful, sunnx road
Where one could drive at will
And seldom meet a farmer's load
i
It was so hiLshed and still.
Toduy 1 went that way again
And lo! a paved highway;
A thoroughfare where many
And cars noised all the day;
And everywhere along the road
New houses met my fight,
While each old fashioned wood abode.
Was sprucely painted white.
And at its edge wore many booths
Of fruits and flowers gay,
Where city folk oft stopped to ehooa#
Their wares, then drove away.
A little struggling, crooked road
A road I once held dear;
A country highway a-la-mode—
My road of yester-year!
—Maude Wood Henry.
