Poet |
| The poet wrote a sonnet to the lady in the bonnet |
| Whom he saw across the river from his spot beneath a tree |
| He wrote into his ditty that he found the lady pretty |
| But he really felt too tired to leave his spot beneath the tree |
| Won’t you cast your eyes toward me |
| That my own may say I love thee |
| Oh at last I see a lady I would wed |
| Pray don’t walk away and leave me |
| For although t’would surely grieve me |
| It would hurt me more to have to raise my head |
| She looked across the river and he felt his body shiver |
| But she didn’t see and walked on by his spot beneath the tree |
| The bonnet in a minute disappeared and all within it |
| And the poet sighed but wouldn’t leave his spot beneath the tree |
