Explore "Cuckoo!" by Hilaire Belloc on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
In woods so long time bare.
Cuckoo!
Up and in the wood, I know not where / Two notes fall.
Yet I do not envy him at all / His phantasy.
Cuckoo!
I too, / Somewhere, / I have sung as merrily as he / Who can dare, / Small and careless lover, so to laugh at care, / And who / Can call / Cuckoo!
In woods of winter weary, / In scented woods, of winter weary, call / Cuckoo!
In woods so long time bare.
