by Cora Randall Fabbri (1871 - 1892)
There's a bird beneath your window
Language: English
There's a bird beneath your window, There's a sunbeam that slips in, There's a rose-bush in your garden Where a spider learns to spin. And we're all in league against you, Bird and flower and gold sun-dart, And the web the spider's spinning Is the mesh to hold your heart.
