Excerpt from An Aviator's Attic To bear you greetings from a land Of warm-est smiles and merry din. They are not exiled thus from home Because of word or deed or crime, They come to claim you as their kin, And prove their claim in rhyme on rhyme. They bear the wine of summer shores The heart-wells of your land to prime. And so I send my loved ones forth With earnest faces, glowing, free, That they may find a home with you, Trusting that they may welcome Le, Hoping that they may do you good In simple truth and honest glee, So that when they turn home again They may not bear reproach or stain.
