THE BIRD'S NEST, by JOHN DRINKWATER Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: I know a place, in the ivy on a tree Last Line: The sound of me watching, if I had been a bird. Subject(s): Animals; Birds' Nests | |||
I know a place, in the ivy on a tree, Where a bird's nest is, and the eggs are three, And the bird is brown, and the eggs are blue, And the twigs are old, but the moss is new, And I go quite near, though I think I should have heard The sound of me watching, if I had been a bird. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...REQUIEM FOR A NEST by WANDA COLEMAN THE THRUSH'S NEST by JOHN CLARE SLEEP AT SEA by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI THE NEST by JULIEN AUGUSTE PELAGE BRIZEUX TO A SWALLOW BUILDING UNDER THE EAVES [AT CRAIGENPUTTOCK] by JANE WELSH CARLYLE THE ROBIN'S NEST by PHOEBE CARY THE GOLDEN-ROBIN'S NEST by JOHN WHITE CHADWICK BIRDS' NESTS (2) by JOHN CLARE |
