Classic and Contemporary Poetry


IN OUR YARD by WILLIAM ALEXANDER PERCY

First Line: MOSES, MOSES, SEEING GOD
Last Line: THAT HELD A MOCKING-BIRD.
Subject(s): GOD; MOSES;

Moses, Moses, seeing God
In a bush that burned,
Moses, Moses, hearing God
Advising, unconcerned,

I believe you, for myself
Saw Him plain and heard --
Others saw a myrtle bush
That held a mocking-bird.
