<h3> <SPAN name="falcon"></SPAN> THE FALCON<br/> </h3>
<p class="poem">
Why should my sleepy heart be taught<br/>
To whistle mocking-bird replies?<br/>
This is another bird you've caught,<br/>
Soft-feathered, with a falcon's eyes.<br/></p>
<p class="poem">
The bird Imagination,<br/>
That flies so far, that dies so soon;<br/>
Her wings are colored like the sun,<br/>
Her breast is colored like the moon.<br/></p>
<p class="poem">
Weave her a chain of silver twist,<br/>
And a little hood of scarlet wool,<br/>
And let her perch upon your wrist,<br/>
And tell her she is beautiful.<br/></p>
