William Brighty Rands Never Poems
- 1. Little Ditties I
Winifred Waters sat and sighed
Under a weeping willow;
When she went to bed she cried,
Wetting all the pillow;
... - 2. The Dream Of A Boy Who Lived At Nine-elms
Nine grenadiers, with bayonets in their guns;
Nine bakers' baskets, with hot cross buns;
Nine brown elephants standing in a row;
Nine new velocipedes, good ones to go;
... - 3. I Saw A New World
I SAW a new world in my dream,
Where all the folks alike did seem:
There was no Child, there was no Mother,
There was no Change, there was no Other.
... - 4. Godfrey Gordon Gustavus Gore
Godfrey Gordon Gustavus Gore â??
No doubt you have heard the name before â??
Was a boy who never would shut a door!
