Clarence James Dennis (Кларенс Джеймс Деннис)

The Music of Your Voice

A vase upon the mantelpiece,
  A ship upon the sea,
A goat upon a mountain-top
  Are much the same to me;
But when you mention melon jam,
  Or picnics by the creek,
Or apple pies, or pantomimes,
  I love to hear you speak.

The date of Magna Carta or
  The doings of the Dutch,
Or capes, or towns, or verbs, or nouns
  Do not excite me much;
But when you mention motor rides -
  Down by the sea for choice
Or chasing games, or chocolates,
  I love to hear your voice.
