Down in the depths of the sea Grew the Apple-Jelly-Fish-Tree. It was named by a queer old robber And his mates three. I watched it for a second, I watched it for a day. It did not change color For its colors stay. It was as red, as yellow, as white, as blue As gold and stones with the light through! I watched it long and long Till a flying sunfish Swam through its branches. He had opal wings And a sapphire tail. No wonder robbers like to stay Where fish so shining come to play! |
