I know some lonely Houses off the Road | B |
A Robber'd like the look of | C |
Wooden barred | D |
And Windows hanging low | E |
Inviting to | F |
A Portico | E |
Where two could creep | G |
One hand the Tools | H |
The other peep | G |
To make sure All's Asleep | G |
Old fashioned eyes | I |
Not easy to surprise | I |
- | |
How orderly the Kitchen'd look by night | J |
With just a Clock | K |
But they could gag the Tick | L |
And Mice won't bark | M |
And so the Walls don't tell | N |
None will | O |
- | |
A pair of Spectacles ajar just stir | P |
An Almanac's aware | Q |
Was it the Mat winked | R |
Or a Nervous Star | S |
The Moon slides down the stair | Q |
To see who's there | Q |
- | |
There's plunder where | Q |
Tankard or Spoon | T |
Earring or Stone | U |
A Watch Some Ancient Brooch | V |
To match the Grandmama | W |
Staid sleeping there | Q |
- | |
Day rattles too | F |
Stealth's slow | E |
The Sun has got as far | S |
As the third Sycamore | X |
Screams Chanticleer | X |
Who's there | X |
- | |
And Echoes Trains away | Y |
Sneer Where | X |
While the old Couple just astir | X |
Fancy the Sunrise left the door ajar | X |
