| C is for Child written by William Henry Davies |
| From "A Poet's Alphabet", 1925 | Link to further information |
See how her arms now rise and fall,
See how, like wings, they beat the air:
An arm to balance either foot,
She moves, half-fluttering, here and there.
And still those motions will suggest
A different life that's left behind
In early days, remote and strange;
Felt in that little unformed mind
For one short season, after birth -
Before her feet are claimed by Earth.
