The Old Easter Bonnet.
I wish the Easter days were now like those
that once I knew,
When Jennie wore the bonnet plain with
ribbon bows of blue;
When we walked to Sunday meetin’ o'er
the meadows green an’ sweet,
Where lilies waved in welcome, with vio
: lets at our feet.
It ain’t the fancy fixin's I mind so much
—the bills e
For birds and fluffy feathers—all the fine
- new-fangled frills;
For I know that fashion changes—that it
rules the world complete;
But the old time FEaster bonnet was so
simple and so sweet !
Its ribbons matched the color of the blue
: sky overhead, ;
An’ the lips that smiled beneath it seemed
to mean the words they said ! -
The lips that smiled so sweetly—never
- knowin’ any art— :
An’ the eyes whose sunny glances made a
light around your heart !
I‘ve nothin’ 'gainst the fashions—they’ve
got to have their day—
But I love the simple bonnets of the far
an’ far away,
An’ thinkin’ how she looked in 'em—
these, in the long ago—
I sigh an’ praise the Lord, from whom atl
blessin’s used ter flow!
