Hide and seek

The trees are tall, but the moon small,

For Avis, Mavis and Tom Clarke Are

hiding somewhere in the dark, And it’s

my turn to seek.

Suppose they lay a trap and play A trick

to frighten me?

Suppose they plan to disappear And leave

me here, half dead with fear, Groping from

tree to tree?

Alone, alone, all on my own

And then perhaps to find

Not Avis, Mavis and young Tom

But monsters to run shrieking from,

Mad monsters of no kind. (Robert Graves)
