Sentiment .... I am not a Summer Friend. 
W hen winter ■ approaches. 
The summer bird flies, 
To far distant lands, 
To sunnier skies. 
When sorrow o’ertakes us, 
False friends fly away; 
The true-hearted remain 
Till a happier day. 
Like the beautiful snowdrop, 
So pure and so white, 
They enliven the day, 
And cheer the dark night.
