A poem by Stephen Crane

There Was A Man With Tongue Of Wood

________________________________________________
Title:     There Was A Man With Tongue Of Wood
Author: Stephen Crane [More Titles by Crane]

There was a man with tongue of wood
Who essayed to sing,
And in truth it was lamentable.
But there was one who heard
The clip-clapper of this tongue of wood
And knew what the man
Wished to sing,
And with that the singer was content.
