H is for Hedge
Free texts and images.
| H is for Hedge written by William Henry Davies |
| From "A Poet's Alphabet", 1925 |
I climb a tree to bring them down -
The yellow eyes of my black kitten;
The laurel hedge that left behind -
Whose shoulders measure three feet wide -
Is swaying lightly in the wind.
But when I looked from my high place,
With my black kitten safely tucked
From danger, under my left arm -
I saw that laurel's thick, broad back
Was wriggling like the thinnest worm.
