Call of the Rook
MysteryMan

Down by the brook
 1
I met a rook
 2
of strange acquaintance there.
 3
And through the trees
 4
and idle pleas,
 5
a sound arrangement formed.
 6
And although a beast
 7
I thought the least
 8
that word would be enough;
 9
but the black bird of sorrow
 10
sang of tomorrow,
 11
And flew off with my
 12
tongue in its beak!
