'A DREAMIN'. 



I jes' set here a dreamin' 



A-dreamin' every day, 

 Of the sunshine that's a-gleamin' 



On the rivers fur away. 



An' I kinder fall to wishin' 

 I was where the waters swish; 



Per if the Lord made fishin', 

 Why a feller ought to fish ! 



While I'm studyin,' or a-writin,' 

 In the dusty, rusty town, 



I kin feel the fish a-bitin' 

 See the cork a-goin down! 



An' the sunshine seems a-tanglin' 

 Of the shadows cool an' sweet; 



With the honeysuckles danglin,' 

 An' the lilies at my feet. 



So I nod, an' fall to wishin' 

 I was where the waters swish; 



Fer if the Lord made fishin', 

 Why a feller orter fish ! 



Frank L. Stanton.
