THE BLACK RIDERS: 2 by STEPHEN CRANE

Poet Analysis

First Line: THREE LITTLE BIRDS IN A ROW
Last Line: THOSE THREE LITTLE BIRDS IN A ROW.

Three little birds in a row
Sat musing.
A man passed near that place
Then did the little birds nudge each other.

They said: "He thinks he can sing."
They threw back their heads to laugh.
With quaint countenances
They regarded him.
They were very curious
Those three little birds in a row.
