Book Description
"Over the hills where the pine-trees grow, With a laugh to answer the wind at play. Why do I laugh? I do not know, But you and I once passed this way. Down in the hollow now white with snow My heart is singing a song today. Why do I sing? I do not know, But you and I were here in May."
