The Book of the Little Past
And you flutter, till you ache

All around your mind.—

Like a Flag,

Like a Flag

Flapping at the wind!

It happens when you catch the hills

As blue as yesterday;

You hold your heart in both your hands,

Or it would fly away.

Yes, it would!

Yes, it would!

Away—away—away!

It makes your heart into a Bird

That darts, and leaps, and sings.

—Oh, feel my pinafore, high up!—

Oh, do you think it's Wings?

Do you think—

Do you think—

Oh, couldn't it be Wings?

[Pg 47]
