Hurt No Living Thing by Christina Rossetti (Children’s Poem)

Christina Georgina Rossetti (5 December 1830 – 29 December 1894) was an English poet who wrote a variety of romantic, devotional, and children's poems. Hurt No Living Thing by Christina Rossetti Hurt no living thing, Ladybird, nor butterfly, Nor moth with dusty wing, Nor cricket chirping cheerily, Nor grasshopper so light of leap, Nor dancing gnat, nor beetle fat, Nor harmless worms that creep. From Sing-Song: A Nursery Rhyme Book (1893)
