Upstairs

I TOO have a garret of old playthings.  
I have tin soldiers with broken arms upstairs.  
I have a wagon and the wheels gone upstairs.  
I have guns and a drum, a jumping-jack and a magic lantern.  
And dust is on them and I never look at them upstairs.      
I too have a garret of old playthings.

Cornhuskers. 1918.
