When I was
just as far as I could walk
From here to-day,
There was an hour
All still
When leaning with my
head against a flower
I heard you talk.
Don't say
I didn't, for I heard you say-
You spoke from that
flower on the window sill-
Do you remember what it
was you said?"
"First tell me what it was you
thought you heard."
"Having found the flower and
driven a bee away,
I leaned my head,
And holding
by the stalk,
I listened and I thought I caught the
word-
What was it? Did you call me by my name?
Or
did you say-
Someone said 'Come'-I heard it as I
bowed."
"I may have thought as much, but not
aloud."
"Well, so I came."
