A MEADOW TRAGEDY

by

Listen in the reader

Here’s a meadow full of sunshine Ripe grasses lush and high; There’s a reaper on the roadway, And a lark hangs in the sky.

There’s a nest of love enclosing Three little beaks that cry; The reapers in the meadow And a lark hangs in the sky.

Here’s a mead all full of summer, And tragedy goes by With a knife amongst the grasses, And a song up in the sky.
