Then came the order from Captain Frank ?Come on men, lower the plank.?
Then he came over and took my arm And smiling led me to the old platform
My friends were waiting, and I could see
That they were happy as they could be
We soon reached the entrance of Mon Sccour
And waiting to greet me at its friendly door
Was dear Aunt Lize and Uncle Joe Galatea and cousin Flo
The girls were there and we talked and planned
For all the parties that were on hand
This went on far into the night
For we were young and our hearts were light
When suddenly someone said ?It?s getting late, belter get into bed"
So we piled into bed. and in seconds it seems Six happy girls were knee-dcep in dreams I could write on for ever more Of the wonderful days spent at Mon Secour
TO MY COTTAGE
When you come to the crossroad	\Vvfl'
Follow the path where the tall pines grow
And before you know you will reach the cofof my dreams
Its snowy white, and its windows gleam
Behind its doors are a million dreams
Tho? its very small, still there?s room for all
In the cot of my dreams
Oft when I sit reminiscing at the close of the day I'm fancy I seem to see, the boys that I love at play I wouldn?t change my cot, for the palace of a king For nobody knows any more than me What a fond memory can bring
LET ME BE GLAD
Let me be glad, as I go back across the years
Filled with their many joys, thru many tears
The rock paths, the meadows green
Life?s storms, and strife life?s days serene
O, memories that fill my heart, you will be always mine
Until one fall the parting time
Then I hope you will requent, the places that in life. I spent You are as priceless as a jewel Bestowed by God -upon a fool
