FI-FI IN BED by ROBERT WILLIAM SERVICE

Poet Analysis

First Line: UP INTO THE SKY I STARE
Last Line: "PLEASE, DEAR GOD, I PITY YOU."
Subject(s): PARIS, FRANCE;

Up into the sky I stare;
All the little stars I see;
And I know that God is there
O, how lonely He must be!

Me, I laugh and leap all day,
Till my head begins to nod;
He's so great, He cannot play:
I am glad I am not God.

Poor kind God upon His throne,
Up there in the sky so blue,
Always, always all alone . . .
"@3Please, dear God, I pity You.@1"
