A little Bird in a tree
Made one—a man and maiden three.
'Twas not by chance that they had met!
"None see," they said; one can forget
A little Bird.
A long hot road, a strip of grass,'Twould tempt the Fates to let it pass!Two people linger in the walk;There's only one to hear them talk,A little Bird.
A long hot road, a strip of grass,
'Twould tempt the Fates to let it pass!
Two people linger in the walk;
There's only one to hear them talk,
A little Bird.
Long shadows stretched across the sky,Two people parted with a sigh,But there was no one there to see!How do I know? and who told me?A little Bird.—E. R. C.
Long shadows stretched across the sky,
Two people parted with a sigh,
But there was no one there to see!
How do I know? and who told me?
A little Bird.
