Here you will find the Poem The rivals of poet James Stephens
I heard a bird at dawn Singing sweetly on a tree, That the dew was on the lawn, And the wind was on the lea; But I didn't listen to him, For he didn't sing to me. I didn't listen to him, For he didn't sing to me That the dew was on the lawn And the wind was on the lea; I was singing at the time Just as prettily as he. I was singing all the time, Just a prettily as he, About the dew upon the lawn And the wind upon the lea; So I didn't listen to him As he sang upon a tree.
