TWINKLE TWINKLE LITTLE STAR 

Twinkle twinkle little star 
JANE TAYLOR FRENCH AIR 

Twinkle, twinkle little star 
How I wonder what you are 

Up above the world so high, 

Like a diamond in the sky.

Twinkle, twinkle little star 

How I wonder what you are.  

When the blazing sun is gone, 

When he nothing shines upon, 

Then you show your little light, 

Twinkle, twinkle all the night. 

Twinkle twinkle & c 

Then the trav'ler in the dark

 Thanks you for your tiny spark 

He could not tell which way to go 

If you did not twinkle so. 

Twinkle twinkle & c 

In the dark blue sky you keep, 

And often thro my curtains peep. 

For you never shut your eye, 

Till the sun is in the sky 

Twinkle twinkle & c

THE SAILOR

 

THE SAILOR - A POEM

by Mary L. Tenery 

I am a jolly sailor lad, 
I sail the deep blue sea 

I know more tales than Old Sin Bad 

Have farther sailed than he.

I sail afar the briny deep, 

To the rainbow's end I go; 

I sail all day and never sleep- 

Heave ho, my lads, Heave ho.

BUTTERCUPS AND DAISIES

BUTTERCUPS AND DAISIES -A POEM

By Leila B Stockton 

Buttercups and daisies, pretty and so gay, 
Shining golden faces full of cheer alway, 

The raindrops only make you a thousand times more 

bright, 

Buttercups and daisies you are a winsome sight. 

(Cut) 

Cut Amid the tall green grasses, you nod to all Good-

 day, 

Mongst your petals gold and white, the breezes 

deftly play, 

The bees and butterflies delight, 

To hover o'er you on their flight,

And from the clear, blue sky above, 

The sun sends to you beams of love.

DECORATION DAY

 

DECORATION DAY 

by Celia Thaxter 

Here bring your purple and gold, 
Glory of color and scent! 

Scarlet of tulips bold, 

Buds blue as the firmament. 

Hushed is the sound of the fife 

And the bugle piping clear; 

The vivid and delicate life 

In the soul of the youthful year. 

We bring to the quiet dead 

A gentle and tempered grief; 

O'er the mounds so mute we shed 

The beauty of blossom and leaf. 

Rich fires of the gardens and meads, 

We kindle these hearts above! 

What splendor shall match their deeds? 

What sweetness can match our love? 

The History Of The Decoration Day

General John A Logan, commander in chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, in 1868 designated the thirtieth day of May as the day on which the graves of dead Union soldiers should be decorated, and this date is now universally observed throughout the Northern states.
