WHERE THE BEE SUCKS
Where the bee sucks, there suck I,
In a Cowslip's bell I lie,
There I cowch when Owles do crie,
On the Batt's back I doe flie
After sommer merrily.
Merrily, Merrily, shall I live now
Under the blossom that hangs on the Bow.

William Shakespeare
MELMILLO
Three and thirty birds there stood
In an Elder in a wood,
Called Mellmillo - Flew off three,
Leaving thirty inthe tree,
Called Mellmillo - nine now gone,
And the boughs held twenty-one,
Called Mellmillo - and eighteen
Left but three to nod and preen,
Called Mellmillo - three - two - one        Now of birds were feathers none.
Then stole slim Mellmillo in
To that wood all dusk and gree,
And with lean long palms outspread
Softly a strange dance did tread,
Not a note of music she
Had for echoing company,
All the birds were flown to rest
In the hollow of her breast,
In the wood - thorn, elder, willow -
Danced alon - lone danced Mellmillo.

Walter De La Mare
FAIRIES IN MY GARDEN
Down in my garden
By the old gum tree,
I saw three fairies dancing,
One, two, three.

They made a fairy circlee
And skipped and skipped around,
They stooped to pick updaisy chains,
That lay upon the ground.

They held their shiny magic wands,
And did a dance so gay,
Then they flapped their fairy wings
And gently flew away.
