UP TO ME, by                    
First Line: I stole a glance at polly
Last Line: "I'll know that it is ""up to me."
Subject(s): Feathers; Geese; Likes & Dislikes


I STOLE a glance at Polly,
Her chin was tilted high,
She scorned me then, — 't was folly
To dare to even try.

So, like a goose I showed the feather,
And sat and talked about the weather.

But now I've grown much wiser,
Next time I will surprise her, —
And when her chin is high, you see,
I'll know that it is "up to me."
