The View From My Wooden Window
The view from my window is stark
The view from my window is dark
For that view is of socks, cold and grey,
Standing some inches apart.
But though my vista be humbling
This slave must needs not be grumbling
For he is honoured indeed to be viewing
Those socks which he yearns to be fumbling!
Though the touch of the socks be elusive
This slave is enrapt and effusive
And praises their wonderful wearer
Even though she be rude and abusive!
Oh pray, pretty socks, have soft pity
At this slave confined in the city
And show me your wonderful stitching
As I sing you my sock-praising ditty!
