Context: I remember it so clearly —
how people, seeing me, would break off in midword.
Laughter died.
Lovers' hands unclasped.
Children ran to their mothers.
I didn't even know their short-lived names.
And that song about a little green leaf —
no one ever finished it near me.

Misattributed
“Laughter would be bereaved if snobbery died.”
As quoted in The Observer (13 March 1955)
“Directly the mulberry tree begins to make you circle, break off. Pelt the tree with laughter.”
