A Tui In The Hawthorn
As I was walking” in the bush, I saw a wondrous sight, I stopped under a hawthorn tree, And saw the flowers so white, I saw the tui sing his song, His breast swelled out so far, I saw the fairies troop along Dancing to the tui’s song. —Cousin Rosemary Rowley (12), Clifdcu House.
