SING-SONG; A NURSERY RHYME BOOK: 117 by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI

Poet Analysis

First Line: IF THE SUN COULD TELL US HALF
Last Line: BIRDS THAT CANNOT FLY.
Subject(s): CRUELTY;
IF the sun could tell us half
That he hears and sees,
Sometimes he would make us laugh,
Sometimes make us cry:
Think of all the birds that make
Homes among the trees;
Think of cruel boys who take
Birds that cannot fly.
