The white cock's tail The white cock's tail Tosses in the wind. Tosses in the wind. The turkey-cock's tail The turkey-cock's tail Glitters in the sun. Glitters in the sun. Water in the fields. Water in the fields. The wind pours down. The wind pours down. The feathers flare The feathers flare And bluster in the wind. And bluster in the wind. Remus, blow your horn ! I'm ploughing on Sunday, Remus, blow your horn! Ploughing North America. I'm ploughing on Sunday, Blow your horn! Ploughing North America. Tum-ti-tum, Blow your horn! Ti-tum-tum-tum ! The turkey-cock's tail Tum-ti-tum, Spreads to the sun. Ti-tum-tum-tum! The white cock's tail The turkey-cock's tail Streams to the moon. Spreads to the sun. Water in the fields. The wind pours down. The white cock's tail Streams to the moon. Water in the fields. The wind pours down. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE SMALLISH SON by HAYDEN CARRUTH BATTLE-CRIES by LOUIS UNTERMEYER SONNETS FROM THE PORTUGUESE: 43 by ELIZABETH BARRETT BROWNING IF by EDWARD JAMES MORTIMER COLLINS A SONG OF FREEDOM by ALICE MILLIGAN PSALM OF THOSE WHO GO FORTH BEFORE DAYLIGHT by CARL SANDBURG |
