2) 'The Bull, ' ' Eve, ' ' The Bells of Heaven, ' and ' The Song of Honour, ' are regularly included in poetry anthologies. I like this poem very much, bit irony, bit melancholy and a very sad tone BUT a jewel, a gem for us to read! To my Favourites!

1) 5 Stars full for this amazingly worded poem, a cutest tiny sweetest one. I cite here from his Bio: In 1924, he moved to Japan and took a post as English lecturer at Sendai's University. His reputation as a poet rests upon a small number of publications.

wonderful piece of poetry. A must for any conservationist!

So true. The humans go to heaven/ mere animals do not dichotomy of many religions breaks down at the interface. Animals are sentient creatures too. This little poem says it concisely.

Breaks y heart. I must pass it on to my friends.

I was so pleased to discover this poem; it was often recited to me by my mother, now long gone.
