The leaves, the little birds
and I the clouds and the sweet, sweet
sky, the pages shining as they ride down there,
down there where the river is wide! Ever too lovely
to play and run about and so I lie in the deep, deep
grass, and watch the pages, as they pass, and
sing to them as they to me till they turn the
bend by the poplar tree and then I sing to right
to the leaves and the birds and myself alone.
