Than Phyllis or Peggy or Mae;
Each day that I’m gone she seems nearer—
And she’s feeble, but smiling and gay.

THE LITTLE DREAMS
Now, France is a pleasant land to know
If you’re back in a billet town,
And a hell of a hole for the human mole
Where the trenches burrow down;
But where doughboys be in their worn O.D.,
