Excerpt from book: THE BAMBOO ONE night when the hills were drenched with dew And moonbeams lay about, The comical cone of a young bamboo Came cautiously creeping out. It tossed aside its cap of brown, Amazed at the sudden light, And so pleased it was with the world it had found It grew six feet that night.

THE MISCHIEVOUS MORNING-GLORY (Adapted from the Japanese) IT was the rosy flush of dawn In beautiful Japan, When, from the house with swinging pail, ...
