THE CODE by CHRISTOPHER DARLINGTON MORLEY

Poet Analysis

First Line: THOSE FIREFLIES SPARKLING IN THE WILLOWS
Last Line: IS NATURE TRYING TO GET ACROSS SOME MESSAGE TO ME?

THOSE fireflies sparkling in the willows,
Here, there, here, there;
Those frogs piping in the moonlit pond,
Tweedle, tweedle, tweedle --
There seems to be a persistent method in it.
What is the code?
Is Nature trying to get across some message to me?
