Have you got a brook in your little heart,
Where bashful flowers blow,
And blushing birds go down to drink,
And shadows tremble so ?
And nobody knows, so still it flows,
That any brook is there ;
And yet your little...
-
-
I'm the little "Heart's Ease"!
I don't care for pouting skies!
If the Butterfly delay
Can I, therefore, stay away?
If the Coward Bumble Bee
In his chimney corner stay,
I, must resoluter be!
Who'll apologize for me?
Dear, Old fashioned, little flower!
Eden... -
My Heart upon a little Plate
Her Palate to delight
A Berry or a Bun, would be,
Might it an Apricot! -
Poor little Heart!
Did they forget thee?
Then dinna care! Then dinna care!
Proud little Heart!
Did they forsake thee?
Be debonnaire! Be debonnaire!
Frail little Heart!
I would not break thee —
Could'st credit me? Could'st credit me?
Gay little Heart... -
This dirty — little — Heart
Is freely mine.
I won it with a Bun —
A Freckled shrine —
But eligibly fair
To him who sees
The Visage of the Soul
And not the knees.
