The white cock's tail The white cock's tail Tosses in the wind. Tosses in the wind. The turkey-cock's tail The turkey-cock's tail Glitters in the sun. Glitters in the sun. Water in the fields. Water in the fields. The wind pours down. The wind pours down. The feathers flare The feathers flare And bluster in the wind. And bluster in the wind. Remus, blow your horn ! I'm ploughing on Sunday, Remus, blow your horn! Ploughing North America. I'm ploughing on Sunday, Blow your horn! Ploughing North America. Tum-ti-tum, Blow your horn! Ti-tum-tum-tum ! The turkey-cock's tail Tum-ti-tum, Spreads to the sun. Ti-tum-tum-tum! The white cock's tail The turkey-cock's tail Streams to the moon. Spreads to the sun. Water in the fields. The wind pours down. The white cock's tail Streams to the moon. Water in the fields. The wind pours down. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...GARRISON by AMOS BRONSON ALCOTT TO THE NIGHTINGALE by ANNE FINCH THE NEED OF BEING VERSED IN COUNTRY THINGS by ROBERT FROST NOCTURNE IN A DESERTED BRICKYARD by CARL SANDBURG SONNET: 130 by WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE THE ATLANTIDES by HENRY DAVID THOREAU AFFINITIES by CHARLES BAUDELAIRE |
