A Boat Beneath A Sunny Sky By Lewis Carroll...........................

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?
