BO-PEEP

EverywhereI rambleIn the ides of May,Through the boughs and brambleThe wood-nymphs play.Where the sunshine dapplesShadows all a-creepBeneath the budding apples,Dances Bo-Peep.Over where the mossesMake a coverletWhich the Spring embossesWith a green fret,From the long hibernalDreaminess of sleepWakes with dimples vernalLittle Bo-Peep.Violets and bluetsMischievously peek;Monks like pigmy druidsPlay at hide-and-seek;O’er each stump a picketSpies with cunning deep,And in every thicketBeckons Bo-Peep.

EverywhereI ramble

In the ides of May,

Through the boughs and bramble

The wood-nymphs play.

Where the sunshine dapples

Shadows all a-creep

Beneath the budding apples,

Dances Bo-Peep.

Over where the mossesMake a coverletWhich the Spring embossesWith a green fret,From the long hibernalDreaminess of sleepWakes with dimples vernalLittle Bo-Peep.

Over where the mosses

Make a coverlet

Which the Spring embosses

With a green fret,

From the long hibernal

Dreaminess of sleep

Wakes with dimples vernal

Little Bo-Peep.

Violets and bluetsMischievously peek;Monks like pigmy druidsPlay at hide-and-seek;O’er each stump a picketSpies with cunning deep,And in every thicketBeckons Bo-Peep.

Violets and bluets

Mischievously peek;

Monks like pigmy druids

Play at hide-and-seek;

O’er each stump a picket

Spies with cunning deep,

And in every thicket

Beckons Bo-Peep.
