From THE DADDY LONG-LEGS AND THE FLY by Edward Lear
Once Mr. Daddy Long-legs,
Dressed in brown and gray, Walked about upon the sands
Upon a summer's day: And there among the pebbles,
When the wind was rather cold, He met with Mr. Floppy Fly,
All dressed in blue and gold; And, as it was too soon to dine,
They drank some periwinkle-wine,
And played an hour or two, or more,
At battlecock and shuttledore.
From this first stanza of the poem, what can you infer the tone of the rest of the poem will be like?
