j ONLY A BALL. AN inflated rubber bladder, * bom bastic heap of wind, A plaything for the girh—likewiie the bojrs. You’re a pin prick in your i*ie and it’i let out all your gas, * You're no longer to'be classed' among their toys. Onceyou werebrightandahinj t (when the paint and all wan hew), ’' And the youngsters would play with you all day. But now you're been discarded and your wind bag’s had a fall, You’re got dirty, aud your use has passed away. I would not be a ball—a blown up heap of wind— But something more substantial, better made, Something with an -inside, something with some rim, Something of a pin prick not afraid. May be the wound wifi heal, and yen'll again be strong, And your pact wffl not dwell’ npbn ' your fall; Strive to b’e more useful, strive & do some-good And be tooted upon as something more than—ball. —MOSS POET.
