HOME AGAIN
After three months in the sunny-
south,
I am home again at last.
It is good to welcome spring once
more
And to know the winter is past.
I wandered in the orange groves
And smeiled the blossoms sweet.
I saw so many lovely sights
Which made my stay complete.
Bet when we reached Cape Cod
Canal
And the bright lights "winked"
at me,
I knew this little "neck <>' land"
Was the only place to be!
Yes, spring is here , dear read-
ers, and so am I. And it's glad I
am to be home again. My grate-
ful thanks to granddaughter Ali-
son who filled In for me in spite
of a busy schedule with two ac-
tive boys and a husband to care
for.
