Nature's Friend
geschrieben von William Henry Davies
Nature Poems (1908) Link to further information




Say what you like,
  All things love me!
I pick no flowers -
  That wins the Bee.

The Summer's Moths
  Think my hand one -
To touch their wings -
  With Wind and Sun.

The garden Mouse
  Comes near to play;
Indeed, he turns
  His eyes away.

The Wren knows well
  I rob no nest;
When I look in,
  She still will rest.

The hedge stops Cows,
  Or they would come
After my voice
  Right to my home.

The Horse can tell,
  Straight from my lip,
My hand could not
  Hold any whip.

Say what you like,
  All things love me!
Horse, Cow, and Mouse,
  Bird, Moth and Bee.
