THE MEADOWLARK 
The cheerless remnant of the snow-drift lies 
Along the fields, and there are wintry skies 
Whose chilling blasts assail thee, Meadowlark. 
I know not how you find subsistence here, 
Among the withered herbs of yester-year: 
I grieve for your uncertain days—but hark! 
I hear your brave note calling, loud and clear. 
—Edward R. Ford.
