"Ruth Pitter was born in 1897 and began to write poetry at the age of five.All of her work can be said to be marked by this and possesses a childlike clarity of seeing and a communion with the natural world and its creatures. For her, a poem is a response and in these four quatrains we see all of her typical qualities as she observes the "glory" of a little bush baby.
