CHILDREN OF BOHEMIA.
Reading edition
BY LAURA LEDYARD.
The Daisies have come to town: Perhaps here and there a new gown, But mostly in tatters—oh, not that it matters; Not one of them cares half a crown If they are. They'll pitch their small tents on your lawn, And if you should bid them begone, Will smile in your face with the sunniest grace, And nod to you gayly next morn If you scoff. A happy-go-lucky young crew, As merry as heaven is blue, These gypsies of flowers will stay a few hours, And then tell your fortunes for you, And be off.
M. DE LESSEPS AND HIS CHILDREN.
