Poem by Robert Louis Stevenson

A Child's Garden of Verses. 11. Singing

Of speckled eggs the birdie sings
    And nests among the trees; 
The sailor sings of ropes and things
    In ships upon the seas.

The children sing in far Japan,
    The children sing in Spain; 
The organ with the organ man
    Is singing in the rain.

1. Songs of Travel and Other Verses. 13. Mater Triumphans
2. About the Sheltered Garden Ground
3. An English Breeze
4. Sonet VI. As in the Hostel by the Bridge I Sate
5. Songs of Travel and Other Verses. 14. Bright is the ring of words
