Verses for Children and Songs for Music
الصفحة رقم: 7
And nothing that we could do or say
Would bring life back to the birds that day.
The bitterest tears that we could weep
Wouldn't wake them out of their stiff cold sleep.
But then,
We—Susan and Jem and I—mean never to be so selfish, and wilful, and cruel again.
And we three have buried those other three
In a soft, green, moss-covered, flower-lined grave at the foot of the willow tree.
And all the leaves which its branches shed
We think are tears because they are dead.
Wouldn't wake them out of their stiff cold sleep.
But then,
We—Susan and Jem and I—mean never to be so selfish, and wilful, and cruel again.
And we three have buried those other three
In a soft, green, moss-covered, flower-lined grave at the foot of the willow tree.
And all the leaves which its branches shed
We think are tears because they are dead.
