Rambling Rhymes PDF Download

Excerpt from Rambling Rhymes I had never even tried to produce a rhyme be fore, and am still wondering where the impulse came from that prompted me to make this attempt! To other letters I added other rhymes and finding that it was not difficult, I kept on rhyming until this considerable output is the result. At the sug gestion of some of my friends who have kindly said they enjoyed my verses, they now appear in this form. I find I have covered quite a range of subjects and some of the poems are, of course, frankly foolish. I had thought of attempting to classify them, but who can say what is really wise and what foolish in life! Believing that many, like myself, prefer the old-fashioned flower - garden where roses, sunflowers and violets grow together, as may hap pen, rather than the formal garden where all is in order, I have so printed these children of my fancy, hoping the reader may find the transition from one to another not displeasing. It has been to me a pleasant innovation in a rather busy life. I write this hoping that perhaps others, who, like myself, have passed the half century mark, may feel prompted to likewise ven ture into new fields of effort, and in so doing may find welcome change and recreation, as I have.
