A Tree with a Bird in it:: A Symposium of Contemporary American Poets on Being Shown a Pear-tree on Which Sat a Grackle
Widdemer, Margaret
American poetry -- 20th century; Parodies
With ardor, or, as some say, "pash,"
In song kind or satirical,
Asking, apparently, no cash,
They make their offerings lyrical.
I'd be the first a spear to break
For Poesy; but this to tackle ...
It seems a lot of fuss to make
About one Tree and one small Grackle.
End of Project Gutenberg's A Tree with a Bird in it:, by Margaret Widdemer
