©The Stork's-Bill Fairy
"Good morning, Mr Grasshopper!
Please stay and talk a bit!"
"Why yes, you pretty fairy;
Upon this grass I'll sit.
And let us ask some riddles;
They're better fun than chat:
Why am I like the Stork's-Bill?
Come, can you answer that?"
"Oh no, you clever Grasshopper!
I fear I am a dunce;
I cannot guess the answer
I give up at once!"
"When children think they've caught me,
I'm gone, with leap and hop;
And when they gather Stork's-Bill,
Why, all the pedals drop!" |
