Who gave them poisoned meat...!

I tried to catch the wind
But instead the wind caught me,
It raised me to great heights before
I landed in a tree.
I tried to catch my shadow
But I failed at all my chances,
For my shadow is quite eloquent
At eluding my advances.
I tried t...

Mother Nearest To My Heart
Mother, how special is that thought;
Grand memories of all you brought
To my life.

Without the precious memory
Of my father's wife.
Crushed was my heart that awful day,
When you were required to move away,
And l...

I got lost in the dark part of the wood

with the shadows in the wood,—):

Jenny kissed me when we met,
Jumping from the chair she sat in;

Sweets into your list, put that in:

Say I’m growing old, but add

Thus mellow'd to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.
One shade the more, one ray...
