Notes

  • Dedication: To you brown children of those northern years That saw the flowering of your childhood through, Revealing us to your laughter and your fears And ways bush-wise and secrets that you knew For we have watched the hours of your delight And sighed that so much sweetness fade away, Of days that knew no darkness but the night And ways that knew no parting save in play.
