Poem by Christina Georgina Rossetti


* * *


Dancing on the hill-tops,
	Singing in the valleys,
Laughing with the echoes,
	Merry little Alice.

Playing games with lambkins
	In the flowering valleys,
Gathering pretty posies,
	Helpful little Alice.

If her father's cottage
	Turned into a palace,
And he owned the hill-tops
	And the flowering valleys,
She’d be none the happier,
	Happy little Alice.
