"I Meant To Do My Work To-Day"

Title:     "I Meant To Do My Work To-Day"
Author: Richard Le Gallienne [More Titles by Le Gallienne]

I meant to do my work to-day--
But a brown bird sang in the apple-tree,
And a butterfly flitted across the field,
And all the leaves were calling me.

And the wind went sighing over the land,
Tossing the grasses to and fro,
And a rainbow held out its shining hand--
So what could I do but laugh and go?

[The end]
Richard Le Gallienne's poem: "I Meant To Do My Work To-Day"
