Corner-of-the-Street
A. A. Milne
1882 to 1956
Down by the corner of the street,
Where the three roads meet,
And the feet
Of the people as they pass go "Tweet-tweet-tweet—"
Who comes tripping round the corner of the street?
One pair of shoes which are Nurse's;
One pair of slippers which are Percy's . . .
Tweet! Tweet! Tweet!
A. A. Milne's Corner-of-the-Street
I am busy working to bring A. A. Milne's "Corner-of-the-Street" to life through some unique musical arrangements and will have a full analysis of the poem here for you later.
In the meantime, I invite you to explore the poem's themes, structure, and meaning. You can also check out the gallery for other musical arrangements or learn more about A. A. Milne's life and contributions to literature.
Check back soon to experience how "Corner-of-the-Street" transforms when verse meets melody—a unique journey that makes poetry accessible, engaging, and profoundly moving in new ways.
