Kate Greenaway Poems

THE Wedding Bells were ringing,
And Monday was the day,
And all the little ladies
Were there so fresh and gay.
...

TIP-A-TOE,
See them go;
One, two, three–
Chloe, Prue, and me;
...

OH, what shall my blue eyes go see?
Shall it be pretty Quack-Quack to-day?
Or the Peacock upon the Yew Tree?
...

OH, dear, how will it end?
Peggy and Susie how naughty you are.
You little know where you are,
Going so far, and so high,
...

THEY saw it rise in the morning,
They saw it set at night,
And they longed to go and see it,
Ah! if they only might.
...

UNDER Rose Arches to Rose Town–
Rose Town on the top of the hill;
For the Summer wind blows and music goes,
And the violins sound shrill.
...

WHEN we went out with Grandmamma–
Mamma said for a treat–
Oh, dear, how stiff we had to walk
As we went down the street.
...

'ARE you going next week to see Phillis and Phoebe?
Phillis on Monday will be just fourteen.
She says we shall all have our tea in the garden,
...

IN September, when the apples were red,
To Belinda I said,
'Would you like to go away
To Heaven, or stay
...

IN the May-time flowers grow;
Little girls in meadows go;
Little lambs frisk with delight,
...
