A Robin said: The Spring will never come,
And I shall never care to build again.
A Rosebush said: These frosts are wearisome,
My sap will never stir for sun or rain.

I neither care to wax nor care to wane.

Because earth's rivers cannot fill the main.

And trilled a lover's song in sheer delight.

Dimpled his blue, yet thirsted evermore. — Christina Rossetti
