  	Poem by Cora, published, The Laclede County Republican: Lost--the Summer Where has the Summer gone? She was here just a minute ago With roses and daisies To Whisper her praises, And everyone loves her so. Has anyone seen her about? She must have gone off in the night, And she took the best flowers And the happiest hours, And asked no one's leave for her flight. Have you noticed her stop in the grass? The garden looks red where she went, By the side of the hedge There's a golden edge. And the rose's vines are withered and bent. Don't you fear she is sorry she went? It seems but a minute since May. I'm scarcely half through What I wanted to do. If she only had waited a day! Do you think she will ever come back? I'll watch every day at the gate For the robins and clover, Saying over and over, I know she will come if I wait. --Mrs. Cora Jolley Park
