With the crimson bongainvillaea, And hibiscus red and pink, And’ the golden allamanda, ’Twould be lovelier than you think. While the royal poinciana With its orange-colored flower, And the iovely oleander Sweetly dipped in sudden shower, Were created by the angels For the purpose, I am sure, Just to fashion a bright rainbow ; Of such beauty and allure. On the curve of it I’d fasten Such a gay red croton wreath; Then for hours I'd admire From the singing shore beneath. And I know that all who saw it, Whether rich, or he who plods, Would realize that we are living In the os of the gods. —JANET PARKS. West, Fla., ch, 12, 1945. LIGHTHOUSE IN TOWN ~ In that dear and quaint old city, Key West, set in opal sea, Is an old and famous lighthouse, Tall in great simplicity. In the deep heart of the city It has stood for many years, As the people all around it, Lived their lives of joys and tears. Over waters ic has beckoned Mariners from every land; And has saved them from disaster, Sweeping wide the coral strand. Like a guiding hand that leads us Down a dim-lit corridor, Safe and surely it has led them : Through the Straits of Florida, For a century its bright beacon Ne’er has failed to message send, And all ships that sail the ocean Look upon it as a friend. In that dear and quaint old city, The old lighthouse plays its part , For the lives of all mankind Cradled in the city’s heart. —JANET PARKS. Key West, Fla., Merch 12, 1945. \ aa.
