The poem
Minnie and Winnie Slept in a shell. Sleep, little ladies! And they slept well.
Pink was the shell within, Silver without; Sounds of the great sea Wander'd about.
Sleep, little ladies! Wake not soon! Echo on echo Dies to the moon.
Two bright stars Peep'd into the shell. "What are you dreaming of? Who can tell?"
Started a green linnet Out of the croft; Wake, little ladies, The sun is aloft!
Hey
I think that this is a great poem, i love to read it when im down cause it lets me wonder of and imagine wh at it would be like to live in a shell sailing thw ocean.
