THE WIRES ARE SO STILL AND HIGH by ANNETTE WYNNE

Last Line: A lovely word is going by!
Subject(s): TELEPHONE WIRES;

THE wires are so still and high
e never hear the words go by,
Yet messages fly far and near ''"
I wonder if the birds can hear.

And when they perch on wires and sing,
I wonder are they listening,
And telling out to earth and sky
A lovely word is going by!
