My answers are inadequate
To those demanding day and date
And ever set a tiny shock
Through strangers asking what’s o’clock;
Whose days are spent in whittling rhyme-
What’s time to her, or she to Time?
My answers are inadequate
To those demanding day and date
And ever set a tiny shock
Through strangers asking what’s o’clock;
Whose days are spent in whittling rhyme-
What’s time to her, or she to Time?
