Daisy. Oh dear, Miss Rose, do tell me please,
Is it you holds up the sky?
Rose. Dear Daisy, no, no, indeed,
I cannot reach so high.
And very far above me
Is the blue and lovely sky.
But if you wish to know.
To find out I will try.
Perhaps that tall fir tree
Is holding up the sky.
[To the fir tree.]
