Notes About The Poem

Melancholy Mood

My collie dog,
a mellon she has
 seen, there...
her feeling very
    Jolly...

my collie ate
 that mellon,
was filled with...
 melancholy,
  somehow...

Now my collie in her
 grave, for this...
mellon proved too
 sour, now there...
on her gravestone,
     appears
a Melon-Cauliflower
