Amy Lowell - The Trout
Work rating: Low

Naughty little speckled trout, 
Can`t I coax you to come out? 
Is it such great fun to play 
In the water every day? 

Do you pull the Naiads` hair 
Hiding in the lilies there? 
Do you hunt for fishes` eggs, 
Or watch tadpoles grow their legs? 

Do the little trouts have school 
In some deep sun-glinted pool, 
And in recess play at tag 
Round that bed of purple flag? 

I have tried so hard to catch you, 
Hours and hours I`ve sat to watch you; 
But you never will come out, 
Naughty little speckled trout!
