Nothing but a flip-side Fancy Dark of The Pigeon Pool

Pigeon girl & boy
Flip-flap their feathers, mad from joy
Within a cool
& moon-lit pool.
Erelong they see:
He broods in me! —
That falter’d fool I am —
Who dares not join them;
Hence, with captivating glance,
Depriving me of any chance
To cage them in a photograph,
They keenly quaff
Their final sip,
& with a flappy flop
They flip
Up ’gainst an edge;
& when my glance once more they catch,
They stare with eyes a-pop
Adown
& watch me drown.

Pigeon girl & boy
Flip-flap their feathers, fill’d with joy
Within a cool
Yet sun-lit pool,
Until they see:
It bothers me,
That such a fool I am —
That I don’t join them;
Hence, without a further glance,
& giving me no slightest chance
To take at least a photograph,
They quickly quaff
A final sip,
& with a flappy flop
They flip
Up to an edge;
& when my glance again they catch,
They look from far atop
Adown
& watch me frown.
