Dame Daisy's "At Home.'*
Little Damo Daisy stood up in tho meadow,
All dressed fur her party at three.
Her gown was plain green and look' and dark in
tho shadow,
But her cap was a wonder to see.
Sir Buttercup stood at her side, the first comer,
As always devoted and bold,
And all tho good cheer and good will of the
summer
Shone up through his helmet of gold.
The clovers came next in their red, shining
musses,
Where honey bees reveled at will.
And butterflies swtuig in the frail, quaking
grasses
That never a moment were still.
A bevy of sunbeams attended upon her.
Bewitching!}' clad in their best,
And a chorus of birds warbled glees in her
honor.
Till tho afterglow paled in tho west.
