A fun book that I found at Goodwill. Several pages are turned down and poems marked. I've enjoyed seeing what the past owner (Sarah Beck 1993 by the flyleaf) thought of the poems. I have to agree with her liking of this one:
I'm nobody! Who are you?
Are you nobody, too?
Then there's a pair of us - don't tell!
They'd banish us, you know.
How deary to be somebody!
How public, like a frog
To tell your name the livelong day
To an admiring bog!
I shall mark this one on the very front:
A word is dead
When it is said,
Some say.
I say it just
Begins to live
That day.
I'm nobody! Who are you?
Are you nobody, too?
Then there's a pair of us - don't tell!
They'd banish us, you know.
How deary to be somebody!
How public, like a frog
To tell your name the livelong day
To an admiring bog!
I shall mark this one on the very front:
A word is dead
When it is said,
Some say.
I say it just
Begins to live
That day.
