The Song of The Herb Twopence Fairy

 

Have you pennies? I have many:

Each round leaf of mine's a penny,

Two and two along the stem -

Such a business, counting them!

(While I talk, and while you listen,

Notice how the green leaves glisten,

Also every flower-cup:

Don't I keep them polished up?)

 

Have you one name? I have many:

"Wandering Sailor", "Creeping Jenny",

"Money-wort", and of the rest

"Strings of Sovereigns" is the best,

(That's my yellow flowers, you see.)

"Meadow Runagates" is me,

And "Herb Twopence". Tell me which

Show I stray, and show I'm rich?
