Poet Analysis

First Line: KOOKOOROOKOO! KOOKOOROOKOO! / CROWS THE COCK BEFORE THE MORN
Last Line: THE DAY, THE DAY, THE DAY IS SPRINGING.
'Kookoorookoo! kookoorookoo!'
Crows the cock before the morn;
'Kikirikee! kikirikee!'
Roses in the east are born.

'Kookoorookoo! kookoorookoo!'
Early birds begin their singing;
'Kikirikee! kikirikee!'
The day, the day, the day is springing.
