A BOAT, beneath a sunny sky Lingering onward dreamily In an evening of July-- |
Children three that nestle near, Eager eye and willing ear, Pleased a simple tale to hear-- |
Long has paled that sunny sky; Echoes fade and memories die; Autumn frosts have slain July. |
Still she haunts me, phantomwise, Alice moving under skies Never seen by waking eyes. |
Children yet, the tale to hear, Eager eye and willing ear, Lovingly shall nestle near. |
In a Wonderland they lie, Dreaming as the days go by, Dreaming as the summers die; |
Ever drifting down the stream-- Lingering in the golden gleam-- Life, what is it but a dream? |
omg i loooooove this!
