    THE 'POETS CORNER
Ode on the Death of a Grasshopper
The Gr4ss is green, the earth I.s brown,.
The sun comes uP'i . the sun goes down*
The birds chirp tweeto tweet p . tOeet;
Don't you think that's aWfully sweet?
No more of the nectar of the' flowers,
Gone is the thrill of hopping in spring
showers:
No more to see the sun, a golden ball
rise,
No more to snap at tasty morsels—
delicious fliese
The night's with its refreshing coolness
is gone,
Also the beauty of Mi - s 6 Katy-Id's song.
From ashes to ashes and dust to dust.,
Tf old Age doesn't get you, some big
stupid human foot; must —SQOOOOOSH.

THE GREEN GRASS GRT3
A green little chemist
On a green little day
Mixed some green little chemicals
Ii .a green little way.
NQW tho green little grasses
So tenderly wave
o'er the green little ch.emist's
Green little grave.
