Cherries of the night are riper
Than the cherries pluckt at noon.
Gather to your faery piper
When he pipes his magic tune:
Merry, merry,
Take a cherry;
Mine are sounder,
Mine are rounder,
Mine are sweeter
For the eater
Under the moon.
And you’ll be faeries soon.
— Cherry-Time, by Robert Graves.
Mine are rounder,
Mine are sweeter
For the eater
Under the moon.
And you’ll be faeries soon.
