WHEN YOU WALK by JAMES STEPHENS

First Line: WHEN YOU WALK IN A FIELD
Last Line: THE BEAUTIFUL CLOUDS GO BY!
Subject(s): CITIES; COUNTRY LIFE; WALKING; URBAN LIFE;

When you walk in a field,
Look down
Lest you tramp
On a daisy's crown!

But in a city
Look always high,
And watch
The beautiful clouds go by!
