I Asked The Little Boy Who Cannot See
~0.4 mins read
I asked the little boy who cannot see,
"And what is colour like?"
"Why, green," said he,
"Is like the rustle when the wind blows through
The forest; running water, that is blue;
And red is like a trumpet sound; and pink
Is like the smell of roses; and I think
That purple must be like a thunderstorm;
And yellow is like something soft and warm;
And white is a pleasant stillness when you lie
And dream."

Narcissa
~0.4 mins read
Some of the girls are playing Jack's.
Some are playing ball
But small Narcissa is not playing
Anything at all
Small Narcissa sits uponĀ
A brick in her back yard
And looks at tiger lilies,
And shakes her pigtails hard.
First she is an ancient queen
In pomp and purple veil.
Soon she is a singing wind.
And , next, a Nightingale.
How fine to be Narcissa,
A changing like all that !
While sitting still, as still, as still
As anyone ever sat!
