Explore "Freaks of Fashion" by Christina Georgina Rossetti on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Such a hubbub in the nests, / Such a bustle and squeak! / Nestlings, guiltless of a feather, / Learning just to speak, / Ask -- "And how about the fashions? " / From a cavernous beak.
Perched on bushes, perched on hedges, / Perched on firm hahas, / Perched on anything that holds them, / Gay papas and grave mammas / Teach the knowledge-thirsty nestlings: / Hear the gay papas.
