I hear a sudden cry of pain! <br />There is a rabbit in a snare: <br />Now I hear the cry again, <br />But I cannot tell from where. <br /> <br />But I cannot tell from where <br />He is calling out for aid! <br />Crying on the frightened air, <br />Making everything afraid! <br /> <br />Making everything afraid! <br />Wrinkling up his little face! <br />And he cries again for aid; <br />- and I cannot find the place! <br /> <br />And I cannot find the place <br />Where his paw is in the snare! <br />Little One! Oh, Little One! <br />I am searching everywhere!<br /><br />James Stephens<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-snare-2/
