To A Wild Bird

Title:     To A Wild Bird
Author: Richard Le Gallienne [More Titles by Le Gallienne]

Wild bird, I stole you from your nest,
And cannot find your nest again;
To hear you chirp a little while
I wrung your mother's heart with pain.

And here you sit and droop and die,
Nor any love that I can bring
Wins me forgiveness for the wrong,
Nor any kindness makes you sing.

[The end]
Richard Le Gallienne's poem: To A Wild Bird
