THE DRIFTWOOD BED

The Forest-Ranger's Second Honeymoon

The little driftwood bed
By Dragon Fly Lake,
Under the noon sun,
Cure for a little heart-ache.
The little driftwood bed,
The song of the dragon waves,
The free love, the free north wind,
And a thousand sorrows in their graves.
The little driftwood bed,
The pillow of pebbles and sand,
And our hearts again wedded
Like the water and the land.
