| The Cuckoo written by William Henry Davies |
| From "My Birds", 1933 | Link to further information |
When I was sitting near a stream,
And watched the waves that came in turns
To butt the rocks that kept them in,
Breaking their milk-white horns -
'Twas then a Cuckoo, full of joy,
No man had seen in any place,
Perched on a tree before my eyes,
And shouted in my face!
