Versos English Sara Teasdale Pierrot stands in the garden

English poem

Pierrot stands in the garden

by

Listen in the reader

Beneath a waning moon, And on his lute he fashions A fragile silver tune.

Pierrot plays in the garden, He thinks he plays for me, But I am quite forgotten Under the cherry tree.

Pierrot plays in the garden, And all the roses know That Pierrot loves his music,-- But I love Pierrot.
