Summer Reception

^{‘Tis not the greatest singer,}

^{Who tries the loftiest themes,}

^{He is the true joy bringer,}

^{Who tells his simplest dreams.}

^{He is the greatest poet,}

^{Who will renounce all art,}

^{And take his heart and show it}

^{To every other heart;}

^{Who writes no learned riddle,}

^{But sings his simplest rune,}

^{Takes his heart strings for a fiddle,}

^{And plays his easiest tune.}
